OK, You Can Panic

As you may know, on Friday about 11 hours of comments (and posts) were disappeared from the blog.  This appears to have been a glitch on the redundant database servers that store most of the data for the site.  In technical terms, the servers stopped synchronizing data in the late morning and in the late [...]

Almost Time for the DC Trip **UPDATED**

Saturday is almost upon us.  We are currently waiting on the last minute confirmations from the bus company about the features of the specific bus that we will be using for the DC trip as well as a few details about the drop off/pick up locations in DC.  In addition, I was just informed that [...]

More on The War on Christmas Party

Over the past week, I have told several people about our War on Christmas party.  I have been very surprised that I had to explain it to many people.  Apparently, it is somewhat of an inside joke on the Internet.  I guess it is good that most people haven’t been tricked into this whole War [...]

The DelawareLiberal Summer Book Club

With Memorial Day here already I would like to throw this out to everyone.  There has been a discussion going on about a book club around DelawareLiberal.  I think summer is an excellent time to give it a try.
Here’s what I propose:

One book per month, starting now.
This summer’s theme should be The Candidates
First Book is [...]

PA Primary Predictions Winner!

Congratulations to Von Cracker for being closest to the final spread without going over. And congratulations to him for being on vacation in St. Martins, no less, leaving the rest of us to prop up the horrible BushCo economy. The Management ™ takes no responsibility for Donviti breaking into your basement, however.
PA Sec [...]

Troll Management

From time to time, we bloggers are challenged.  We are confronted with the Internet equivalent of a vandal, or an abuser.  It is at these times that we are forced to decide where the right to free speech is abridged.  Now I am not talking about Dave Burris banning Mike Protack (or his router, for [...]

Pardon the Interruption

Sorry for the little technical glitch. No, your office didn’t start blocking the site, there was a technical issue which has been rectified.

Easter Dinner: Turkey or Ham?

Sure, it isn’t healthcare or the war, but which is your preference for Easter dinner?  I picked up a smoked ham from Durhams BBQ (Fletchwood and Elkton Roads) last night.  I cannot describe how good a nice freshly smoked ham is.
Happy Easter, from DelawareLiberal.Net.

Feature Preview: New Liveblogging Application

I have been doing some research into some really whiz-bang chat applications, but I haven’t been particularly impressed with any of them. I have found one that needs some work, but I think will serve our needs. However, I need you to test it out. Let me know if you have any [...]

DelawareLiberal Talent Search

I did my Harris McDowell video this weekend.  While overall, I am happy with the results, I am a little disappointed in the voice talent that I hired (namely, me).  So I am looking for someone that has a sufficiently scary voice that doesn’t mind using that voice to excoriate the windpower evildoers.  If you [...]

Plans for DelawareLiberal.Net

Hello kind readers, DelawareLiberal is planning on moving to the next level of blogging in the near term.  As you may know, we have used the delawareliberal.net domain name for the past 6 months or so.  Currently, that address redirects to delawareliberal.wordpress.com.
We have been considering some changes to that system that would free us from [...]

The Radio Ad 3 Days In

It is hard to figure out whether or not a radio ad is having an impact on website traffic, but I think I have found some evidence that we are gaining traction.  Wordpress gives stats on all sorts of things.  One of the stats is the search terms that people used to find the site.  [...]

Radio DelawareLiberal

We don’t have enough data points yet to run a regressions analysis and figure out our ROI, but the ad was well received in the comments section and perhaps the best validation of all is that we have some people willing to fund a few more weeks of it. Boohya!!
The first few weeks [...]

Listen to the Radio Spot!

The radio spot is now available for your listening pleasure on the right side of this post (at least until donviti posts something about what he is wearing to Drinking Liberally tomorrow).  Have a listen here and you won’t have to listen to WDEL.

Delawareliberal ad bashing George Bush and Mike Castle to air on WDEL today

So listen up.
There are some things I ended up really liking. I like the way it ties Mike Castle to George Bush. I like the tag line and the fact that it works to advertise blogging in general and Delawareliberal specifically.
I like that it was an open source effort. Comment [...]

See you Tuesday

I’m off to the Delawareliberal survival compound for the weekend to check the water purification system and squeeze off some AK rounds.
Enjoy your weekend and keep your powder dry.

Liberals, Logic and Tolerance

This is a guest post from Rebecca.
————————————————————————-
Recently Delawareliberals have been attacked for intolerance when we refused to mourn the death The Reverend Falwell. Historically, we’ve been attacked for being overly tolerant and flip-floppers who can’t define what we believe, so we must not believe in anything. As usual, this whole load of bunkum [...]

Radio Spots – It is go time.

It is time for final edits. The first script was far too long. The second script was too short. A :60 spot should be about 195 words. I made some edits. The all caps is kinda tough to read, but do your best.

I have an idea

About a week ago I wrote a post about how devastatingly handsome I am.
Well, I had an idea that might raise some funds for our (Jason’s) commercial campaign. I’m not afraid to use my body for financial gain and no one here at Del lib likes to ask for money with out giving something in [...]

Additional Radio Spot To Consider

[I'm thinking maybe some finger picking guitar in the background]
Voice: Rumor has it politicians are only held accountable during election years. We at Delaware liberal.com want to make our politicians accountable all year round. There is a lot going on in the state of Delaware that so many of us don’t know about. [...]

Radio Spot Moves Closer

As DelawareLiberal moves closer to advertising on some of the local media outlets, I would like to remind you that we are still looking for suggestions about the content and format of those ads. This is a chance to show off your creativity, humor and/or knowledge. Please post any ideas (even partially formed) [...]
