A Quick Word

Hi everyone,
The wheels never stop turning in the Interspire offices, and this month we've been busy as ever working on major product updates.

Rodney has released ActiveKB 2005 1.3.7 (details here), which is a minor release, mainly for bug fixes. He's also finished ActiveKB NX2 (yes, NX2) and it's currently in Beta testing with around 10-15 of our customers, so look out for news on its final release in the next issue of the newsletter!

Jordie has also released ArticleLive NX 1.6. The release is a minor update and fixes a few known bugs. It also includes a file-based caching system designed to help sites with lots of articles reduce the load on their server. Read more about it here. Current customers can download both ActiveKB 2005 1.3.7 and ArticleLive NX 1.6 from our client area.

In this issue we have a few new templates, as well as articles on reducing comment spam on your site using Captcha and getting familar with RSS feeds and ArticleLive. Both articles are interesting reads.

Until next month, keep smiling!

The Customer Knows Best

  • "You guys are great. Best customer support I have ever seen. Even if you live clear across the world." - Robert Jones, kungfutemple.com

  • "I just wanted to thank you for your remarkable follow-up about my problem... (which turned out to be something at my end anyway!). As someone who owns and runs 2 ecommerce businesses, I have very clear ideas of what 'customer service' means in the virtual shopping world -- so I know how much is involved to keep that personal touch as you do. All I can say, is that on product and follow-up service you definitely rate top billing in my book.

    It goes without saying that your product is well designed, timely,totally easy to use for the non-techy, and a godsend for the entrepeneur or start-up ecommerce person, but what sets you apart is your communication and attention to my individual needs as a customer. Even before I purchased, you answered my questions promptly and in a helpful way -- without using template replies or canned solutions with no bearing on my email questions (a common experience at larger sites).

    Anyway, I want you to use this on your site so folks can read this to help them decide whether to go with you or not. Best wishes for continued success with your marvelous product" Dana Lewis, www.ecomm-host.com

  • YOU GUYS RULE! In fact, your support for Articlelive has convinced me that I should buy Sendstudio and quit d**king around with open source s**t for my newsletter needs. Thanks, Brandon Drury, x-support.com

Reducing Comment Spam With Captcha

"The most common use of CAPTCHA on the web today is to try and prevent the automatic submission of forms by programs designed to submit a form repeatedly, typically called a bot, usually for the purpose of spam. By adding a CAPTCHA to your form, you can cut down on the amount of spam you receive via your contact form..."
