I've already sent a PM to the originator verifying whether or not I need to change the name so as not to step on any one's toes.

And after looking at that link looks liek I will be so, I'll be changing the name today.

Thank you for letting me know, I appreciate that, I truly did not know that there was one already.

Gravy, Thank you for the clarification. I was unsure as to whether I should put it in beta since planned release is fairly shortly.

[Cloudrunner]

Anyway, Looks like beta will be sooner than I thought, I should have pre-beta out this weekend, I need two Alpha testers for this, if you are interested please PM me and we'll talk.

I've a few more things to code in, and once those adjustments are done, and the installer is written I'll release Beta.

Thank you for the encouragement, I appreciate that.

Just an FYI, I've hit an unanticipated snag in the developement which will delay release slightly.

My hosting provider was getting screwed by Voxel and their server farm, so they have moved their entire operations over to Alabanza. Until this move is done, I cannot do any updates currently. Once we have finished with the move, I will be back on this project full tilt again.

Just to let you know what's going on.

Thank you for the offer, however, after three years with this host and this being the only time stuff has screwed up, I'm still very loyal to our current host.

But thanks again, I do appreciate it.

I meant free for temporarily time, in no way I will charge any money, therefore, mine can't be compared with your host .

I will be one of your alpha testers.

Here is a thought for a new feature (feel free to disregard): Once you get >1000 links, you start getting many duplicates and it makes things look sloppy. Would it be possible to have an option to periodically search the database for duplicate links and report anything that has similar URL's. Then a human moderator can decide if it is an unwelcome duplicate or if it is intentional.

Excellent suggestion, will prolly be implemented in the final release, I'll put it the "nice to haves" area for now. Thank you!

PM me for alpha bro
