I'm a huge bookworm & love reading many different genres of books. Reading is my escape from reality however brief it may be. I always take a book with me to any appointments I have as to not go crazy while waiting. If I'm at home & sitting down it's a pretty safe bet I have a book in hand. That is unless I'm on here & even then a lot of times I am looking for "new authors/books" just waiting for me to discover. Based on the books &

In response to the poll the one thing we have heard everyone say is they would like further information. So, I thought I would post this blog in attempt to further explain the new site direction we are referring to along with some other points members have brought up.
First off we have never allowed promoting of other sites on eCrater Ning. Not on personal pages or else where on the site. That has been the rule ever since the site opened.
To hit on some other points members have brought up is…

Having vacationed in Savannah, GA. just a few weeks ago a friend forwarded this to me thinking I would get a kick out of reading it. Someone posted this on Craigslist in the Personal section. I found this to be very entertaining to read so I thought I would share it!

After commenting on a Forum post here & being informed that some photos in listings here on the Shopping page aren't showing up I went & read the eCrater forum.
D has moved some eCrater store photos to a new Server which means it broke a lot of links to our photos. That is why some aren't showing up on the Shopping page (for those of us who link directly to our photos in our stores) & also aren't showing up on Google Search. So, please everyone that has linked directly to their phot…

The new Shopping page has been launched. This one we hope will appeal to customers more. The new Shopping page is categorized. Which will make it much faster & a lot easier finding specific items. If we have missed a category just let us know & we will be happy to add it. You can either post it here in the comments or via email. We hope everyone enjoys this new feature.

So, for everyone already on MySpace be sure to add a variety of your item photos including with each a photo title. Someone searching for said item may happen across your photo & in turn find your store. You can also add your store link to your…
