		<title>Why Finestories.com?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been receiving this question since I started the new site&#8217;s beta stage. I guess I should address those questions once and for all. Why Finestories.com? It&#8217;s simple, while storiesonline.net is very successful, it&#8217;s adults only and quite frankly it has some contents that even adults can&#8217;t handle. I&#8217;ve been asked by many authors and [...]]]></description>

		<title>iPad ebook reader</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Having received my iPad and started testing it with the site, I&#8217;m glad to report that it works perfectly. However, the previous e-book readers that I have haven&#8217;t been updated for the iPad yet. Stanza, which is what I use on my iPhone, was bought a while ago by Amazon and I&#8217;m not sure if [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sensitive content issue followup</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Thanks for all those who commented, your feedback has been very valuable. Alright, time for some decisions. I guess after all 130+ comments, it&#8217;s agreed that the new system should be implemented. It will take a little while to do, but it will get done. Some changes will be required, like the clear definition of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sensitive content issue</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Problem: Proliferation of pedo stories, especially extreme ones is turning readers away from the site and drawing concern from long time members. Recently, I’ve started receiving many requests to delete members accounts and received several messages of concern, all citing the proliferation of pedo stories on the site. My long standing attitude towards this issue [...]]]></description>

		<title>Malware</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, this site got hacked again! No, not storiesonline.net, but this blog, hosted at storiesonline.org. In the last three weeks it happened two times prior to this. One time a redirect iframe got injected into the database and the second time, another iframe got injected into the site&#8217;s index page. I cleaned them up each [...]]]></description>

		<title>Phasing out support for externally linked stories</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;ve had support for externally linked stories since the start of the site. However, the feature wasn&#8217;t exactly popular and generally led to confusion and frustration with the readers and misuse and abuse by some authors. I&#8217;ve decided to phase out support for externally linked stories. As of today, the &#8216;New External Story&#8217; button in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Expired Security Certificate Situation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Since Monday, November 9th 2009, in the afternoon, all secure pages on the site from the log in page to the subscription system are causing browsers to report an expired security certificate error. Impact: Not much really. The certificate still works for encryption, so no data is ever compromised. All a user has to do [...]]]></description>

This support is restricted to story display and the new stories list and the updated serials list. I will be rolling out support in other pages gradually.

		<title>We&#039;ve moved!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Alright, so we&#8217;ve moved. The move yesterday took about two hours from when the servers were shut down to the site being accessible again. It was fairly uneventful. However, the site is not back up to to its old normal self. We&#8217;re still missing the hefty hardware required for content search. We&#8217;re running on a [...]]]></description>

		<title>So, what happened?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Again, with a problem that took the site offline for a considerable amount of time. So, what happened? Well, it turned out that the hosting location that I have the servers in, is in the process of being closed down. They didn&#8217;t give me prior warning. So there were people moving servers and racks to [...]]]></description>
