Something I didn't notice before ... ?

So, I found this nifty little  button at the bottom of the Forums page.


Yes, I'm the member online. This is at the Vest a Dog forum, by the way. Intrigued, I clicked on 'Active Users'. Maybe this'll get us somewhere. Well, the only problem with that is sometimes it's just the stupid Googlebot crawling the pages over and over again. It'd be nice to get some people just looking at the site, no?

It's called Search Robot Google there, so I was momentarily confused as to what they were talking about. We all know it's Googlebot, everyone! So anyway, it wasn't Googlebot the time I posted this, it was someone on Windows XP Safari or something. They were on the Register New User part! Ooh. Interestiing. Unfortunately, a few minutes later they logged off. Without registering. This kind of frustrates me.

I dunno if this constitutes as weird, because anyone can see where you are on the site. On the other hand it's nice to know there's someone checking out this old site in the first place.What do you think?

Hmm, first post

Naturally this won't get a thousand views, but I'm hoping someday I'll get there.

Well, to be really vague, I'd say that it's about animals. But that's not what it's really about.
My friends and I are trying to get a Vest-A-Dog club started at our school. It's a really worthwhile cause, actually, so I advise you look into it. But at the minimalist level, Vest A Dog is an organization to fundraise for bulletproof vests for police dogs.

Where we are now? Well, we've submitted the club form, trying to get the Vice principal to actually make some freaking eye contact with us, attempting to start a website on it while someone's a bit too stubborn and prideful to simply use a normal template, and the Vest a Dog site is so inactive that I'm pretty sure it's the equivalent of a thousand-year-old book. In the broken-down library in the small, off-the-map town. With the population of 5.

If you're looking for more info, try www.vestadog.org. Or you can track us as we try and get this project off the ground.
