Since I'm somewhat responsible for site business, this thread will be for the purpose of talking about current site status, at least as it pertains to my duties. I have to keep on Woody, the site owner, to keep adding, and adding quickly, content and features. I know you mortals well...it is hard to get and keep your attention.
Behind every successful man there is a good woman, and I am her in the lives of quite a few young men. Remember this.
Anyways, I'm such a busy body sometimes. Please forgive. But will keep you all in the loop as to what is happening with site business. We need your help and patronage as always and am trying to do my part.

Hey Hera, its good to see you finally made it. It is true what she says about being responsible for site business as she is my right-hand woman around here, and therefore head hostess (just our term for the women that are permitted onto the site to help the male mebership with stuff). I thought it would be very boring that it would just be us guys.
I have to run Hera and get you moderator status so you can have some power on the boards. As you always remind me lol "Women seek for power" and I have to get you some, hon. But its good that you are here.
Be careful of this good woman, members. She can talk you into or out of anything lmao. But she has the most beautiful heart of anyone I've ever met. She's clever and chaotic, fun and smart and she keeps me on task everyday. Its totally true what she says about making men successful, I couldn't have done this without her help.
Talk to you again soon, Hera (hugs).

OK, curernt site business. (September 28, 2013)
All I have to do is tell you what we are stressing about...a good place to start.
Woody's (Mr. Stanford) almost got the banner system complete. We are technically a community portal centered around Mesa, Arizona so if you are local business, please try it out. The ordering process is compeltely automated, so all you have to do is go to the page that handles it and place orders. But we also do banner advertising for just about anyone.
Banners are done CPI (cost per impression) and sold in lots of 1000 impressions. If you are a small business you might think of spending as litte as $7 to just try it out. But we tend to do business with people we associate with socially around here, so you might want to get on for a while and then try it. Just some ideas.
Ummm, a big thing going on is the Hostess program.
What drives the site is the high-bandwidth video. You'll need like COX cable modem for that and a hot PC, sorry if it drags on your PC. Its pretty high tech stuff. I'm also a comp sci grad so I do have a handle on it, but Woody handles most of the programming and stuff (he's an actual software engineer btw). But I digress, I meant to say that a nice feature of Project Hera is that there are women here, but its controlled access by invitation.
I know Woody's going to clobber me for saying this, but he really is like a major, major player. Not a playa (as HE loves to say tinkle) but he really knows a lot of fine women. Not the typical IT guy in that way. He's going thru his proverbial little black book and getting his finest to show up here so you gentlemen will have some pleasant company while you socialize amoung yourselves.
He's serious about this being a guy's only site, but he doesn't want it (laughing so hard right now) being a "total sausagefest" as he puts it. Anyways, I've said too much already (gulp). I'll probably come back and edit this a bit.
So if you see any of us womenfolk walking around, most of us are hostesses, helping out with the site, getting content both on the forum and the Cool Shite section.
That's it for now m'peeps. I'll keep you all in the loop.
We do need men mods though, so if you want to help out contact either me or the admin via U2U and volenteer.
Ummm, also Woody's friend Lila is here (I so have to meet her at some point) to help out with content on the forum side, I think. Apparently she's like super, super cool and a lady.

Something we are trying out (just presenting the idea at this point) is a concept of movie night. Its difficult to find legal or quasi-legal sources of high-quality content so the movies aren't going to be like the ones you pay $15 for at the movie theater but we're pretty good about finding cult classics that a lot of people haven't seen in a while. Project Hera is free, so hush on the whining.  You WILL get your money's worth, this I can promise you. Movie Night tonight (check post date) is The Cell II. Not a big box office winner, but a cool little sci-fi/horror dealio. Check it out at www.projecthera.com/cell2.php |

Got together with Woody (the admin) and was talking about how some of his old chat friends are coming by to help with the forum. Apparently Stel, or Venus or whatever her name is quite the looker. I hate competition of that sort but I suppose I'll have to learn to live with it lol jk. But we have Eris and Stel here to help. I'm so glad to be perfectly honest to have the company. Hera (lol now I'm doing it too nm) is a guys only site so its nice for us girls to be able to work together I think.  the more I work with Woody though the more of his idioms and writing habits I pick up. I wonder if that means anything lol. But I digress... Welcome Eris and Stel. I'll shoot you both a PM when I get a chance. I put a lot of work in reciently so I'm a little tuckered out of forum right now, but when I get a chance I'll visit with you both. If you need anything check with me, I'm a housemate of Woody's so I can talk to him face to face and get more done in less time, or talk to him directly until we get to know each other better. And I do need to focus a little more on work right now. Welcome and good luck, you two. Again, I'm glad for the company. |

A lot of things going on, but not much at this time that's really crystalized into any plan. About the only thing I can report is that we are planning over the next week to put some PHP scripting into our main site so that we can add content via form instead of direct HTML editing. We can just pump the YouTube codes in to a MySQL database and the PHP in the pages themselves will auto-update the Cool Stuff section of the main www.projecthera.us site. Woody's away on business for the time being, so even though the banner advertising and ordering scripting is live, it'll be a few more days before he takes the Under Construction notices for that. Basically reporting that we are concentrating on the tech side of things for the next little while. On the more enjoyable side of things, I'm starting to see where Woody is going on some of the issues that I thought were kind of vague. <haughty expression> But I'm starting to see the method to his madness. He's a clever man that one. He knows on a certain point that if I would have known in advance about it I would have put up a major stink about it, but now that its done, I am glad I didn't know because its actually working. But I know I'm going to have to keep an eye on my partner from now on because I know, I KNOW, why he did it and it wasn't for business reasons, it was because he wanted to have FUN. Woody I soooo know you are laughing as you read this, but I have to admit, its cool, very cool. Kinky but cool hon. But still, I don't like that feeling of loss of control. The admin and I will have to talk about this. rofl. You all will be lucky to have an administrator after the tounge lashing I'm going to give him lol jk. |
