(Picture from dgeek.typepad) Davids most recent post on DGeek explains the current situation.
Hello dGeeks! The time has come to say farewell to dGeek.com in its present form and welcome to dGeek! The good news is that dGeek is more popular than ever. The bad is that my existing hosting, configuration and administration skills can't handle all this flattering new attention (twitter-y is perhaps a better word for it)! I feel that I have tried your patience enough! From here on in existing dGeek content will continue to be available in archived form. New postings will be done atdGeek.typepad.com! I'm afraid that I see no other choice than to shutter the dGeek forum and the dChat for the time being. The plan is to archive, organize and streamline the existing posts...I'm sorry to say that there will be no further posting on the forum until I feel we've have a new, bullet-proof system to offer you. All of the many comments, posts and emails agree on one thing. The most important change for the future of dGeek is more content. But fret not little squirrels, your suggestions and moderating mobs from the New dGeek postings have not been ignored and will not be forgotten! Instead they will be forged into the blueprint for dGeek 2.0! Without the time-consuming technical challenges of overseeing the site, I'm hoping to give you all the dGeek you can handle... all this and in a stable and less error-prone environment too?! Yes, more blogs, more articles and less errors and frantic reconfiguring...what more could any dGeek want! ...at least until the new Hewlett empire is complete! ;-) Thank you for joining me on this, my next great web adventure! All the best, David Hewlett dGeek'
As David mentions sadly the DGeek forums have been shut down for the time being with a view to archive the posts and stream line the process. As the update suggests you can find David's new DGEEK here:- http://dgeek.typepad.com/
After some short down time for some cleaning to the forums dgeek has since returned. David is asking for applications/nominations for those who think they might be able to help out with the dgeek forums moderation or administration. Those interested should email on: adminime@adogsbreakfastmovie.com
For more David news for those who already aren't follow David in twitter you can find recent updates on the dgeek homepage.
After a shortage of any real news other than gossip on this Joe Mollozzi has featured a picture of the script entitled 'Stargate: Extinction' on his dog's twitter page. This was since confirmed by Gateworld (www.gateworld.net) where Joe confirms this is indeed the working title. Of course this poses all sorts of questions, all we can hope for is more news on this soon!
Am painfully aware of the lack of updates but I think I along with everyone else is following David (and friends) on twitter something which has become rather popular as of late. David has left one update on DGeek regarding 'A Dogs Breakfast release dates'. Netherlands: Jul 14, 2009 Belgium: Jul 14, 2009 South Africa: Apr 6, 2009 France: Dec 31, 2009 Germany: Oct 2, 2009 Middle East: April 29, 2009 Russia: Feb 19, 2009 Brazil: Jun 17, 2009 Mexico: Mar 19, 2009
Unfortunately as you can see still no signs of the UK but David assures us that he is still battling for this.
Just a quick note to let you know that David has began updating his twitter much more frequently over the last couple of days so if you haven't caught up in a while check it out. Also this is an announcement of a brief hiatus on my part, I am going on holiday to Vancouver at the end of next week and will be away for a couple of weeks. Any big David updates I will add when I get back.
For those attending Creations Vancouver Con hope to see you there!
