Important news from TV Vote:
"Greetings TV_Voters:
TV_Vote is moving to a new address. On this coming Sunday morning, January 13th, we will activate our new site at
http://www.tvvote.tv for a trial run.
If all goes well, we will stay there until January 2009, when we will decide whether to continue for another year or end the vote.
If there is a problem with the new site, we will revert back to the old address, but we don't expect any problems because there haven't been any changes to the way things actually work. We have made an attempt to clean up the look a bit, but no changes to the poll forms.
http://www.tvvote.tv is on a different server with a different web host, but we think that it will actually make the site work better.
When you come to the current site on Sunday January 13th, all you will see is a page with a link to
http://www.tvvote.tv and we will keep that page link up indefinitely in the future. You can also use the alternate address
http://tvvote.tv starting Sunday if you prefer (it's shorter.)
WHY, WHY, WHY?
The current TV_Vote site is actually a subweb of
www.richlabonte.net, but it accounts for over 70% of all the traffic on richlabonte.net. We thought it deserved a stand-alone site and URL so a year ago we reserved tvvote.tv. (We couldn't get tvvote.com because COMCAST is sitting on it - they don't use it, but they got it first and they're too big to fight for it.)
Then we waited a year to see if you guys would still be here. You are, so TV_Vote gets the new URL tvvote.tv as of Sunday.
Our new web host for
http://www.tvvote.tv also offers a couple of features we will try out - they have a board / forum thingie and also a little poll deal that we could use to bring back our Instant Polls. Plus we get a whole lot of extra space to work with on their server - enough to put up a picture gallery / library of our Flash banners or even stream classic TV episodes maybe, who knows?
Our commitment to another year of TV_Vote gives you a chance to fill that fifth position in the Fan Power Hall of Fame after Gunsmoke takes number 4 (in about a month, we reckon.) It will also give Nomination Poll voters a better chance to make the Top 40.
So Don't Panic on Sunday and remember:
Fan Power Rules!
