No worries. I didn’t take it as snarky. Points were all well-taken and I agree with them. I just basically overslept due to a late night and both the newsfeed and the video feed auto-published before I had a chance to go through cull the bs from the real articles. I’ve added some additional safeguards to make sure it doesn’t happen again.
Even though this particular site is homegrown, I do intend it to be professional and that wasn’t. My bad and it was right to call me on it — you couldn’t have known the circumstances.
You’re right of course…this site is the effort of one person, and you’re doing a great job. And my comment is snarky…I didn’t really mean it to be, and I DO appreciate the effort you’re putting forth on behalf of this movie. Any other Disney product would not get this kind of support from me, but I too want this to succeed…it is a visceral need on my part (as I sense it is from you).
That was a mistake. The program gathers all the videos and then I go through and get rid of all the ones that shouldn’t be there — the illegit ones. It’s set to publish in the morning and I normally can edit it before it auto-publishes. Last nigth I was out unit 4am so I got a late start this morning and it auto-published without me being able to strip out the NG ones. Won’t happen again – perils of being a one man band.
Lest you start making people angry, I think the updates here should be a bit more selective…having a long list of illegitimate youtube videos and links to articles that aren’t even related to John Carter is a tad frustrating. It is especially important considering the fact that you have nobly taken on the mantle of marketing this film in your own personal way. I love the fan trailers, and you are definitely keeping up on the most up to date news, but the main page is turning into a messy info dump. You have peoples attention…don’t lose them by making the content of the page less relevant. My two cents…take it or leave it.
