I think everyone should give Dao a big thank you for helping minimize the website downtime, and for setting us up with a website that will be super useable in years to come!

Thank You Dao!

Also, thanks to Empire Squared for allowing us to do shows in there space, and to Julie Ryan for her work on helping us acquire a new space.

Welcome to the New Site

Sunday, January 15th, 2006

Hope you like it. We unexpectedly lost our old site last week, but that’s OK: it was time for a change anyway. Here’s some stuff about our new home:

  • General information about The Placebo ? like how to contact us, what it is that we do, and whether we have an address yet /grin/ ? is located on the About The Placebo page.
  • There’ll probably be a lot of big and little changes to the website in the next few months, so there’s a Site News page, too.
  • We now have RSS feeds. To be automatically notified when we update the blog/news section ? that’s this page right here ? just add the RSS Entries feed to your RSS reader.
  • You can now comment on entries! However, if you haven’t posted on this site before ? which, of course, you haven’t; no one has ? your comment has to be approved by one of us before it will show up. It’s something we have to do cuz of the evil spammers. We’ve installed spam-catching software, and have removed comment moderation. If you’re comment doesn’t appear straight away, it may have been erroneously categorized as spam. We look at all those, so it’ll get posted before long.

That’s it for now. If you have any suggestions or notice anything that’s not working quite right, just click on the title of this post and then “leave a reply”.
