We hate boring websites, don’t you? Everyone at The Meteorites works really hard (in their free time) to make sure it isn’t a boring site. Over the next days, weeks and months we will be working on improving the themeteorites.net.
Yesterday, thanks to a suggestion from a visitor, we made The Meteorites logo (top-left) link to the home page. The logo on the databases also links to the home page – themeteorites.net. This may seem like a very simple and minor change to the site, but we had forgotten to implement it into the site design. Thanks to visitor suggestions like this, we can continue to improve the site for your and our benefit.
Who doesn’t love new things? From the feedback we received from a recent poll here on The Meteorites, we are going ahead with a social network-type section of the website, for fans and players of Meteor Games to interact in more ways. Along with this, we will be adding some interesting features to our Databases. These upcoming features include (but are not limited to): item wishlists/gallery, achievement log, integration with our social network. These two updates aren’t the only thing we are currently working on, after the Google Wave was unveiled recently we have decided to try and implement that into our website.
If you didn’t know, Google Wave is a revolutionary means of communication. It allows for live editing and chatting, easy creation of content and can be customised with gadgets/extensions (ie live text translation). Google Wave is not yet released to the general public, but when it is, we will be working to add it to the site, adding a great new and interesting feature to our site.
Note to staff: Latest newsletter has been released. Login to view it 
Edit: If any of you were wondering, this Google Wave addition to the site in the future, is an experimental feature to the site. We will test it for a couple months to see if we and you like it, if not it will be removed 
Edit 2: The sidebar will have a makeover soon. Any suggestions, email us: mail@themeteorites.net

I got a suggestion for you how to sped up your site by 30-40% and reduce server traffic by 70%:
Put this in your .Htacces or your HTTPCONF:
Header set Cache-Control “max-age=604800, public”
SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
FileETag MTime Size
Would be nice to tell me if you start useing it (_:
