Epinions Site Update - Media
Posted: Thursday, July 17, 2008
On Wednesday, July 16th, we were scheduled to migrate the Media Categories to the Shopping.com catalog. We were unable to complete the transition and we were required to put the site into "read-only" mode yesterday evening. As a result, any changes or updates made to reviews yesterday between 3pm and 6pm PT may have been lost. The migration has been postponed and a new date for the migration has not been scheduled at this time. We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.

Epinions Site Update
Posted: Tuesday, July 15, 2008
In an effort to communicate more about what is happening on the site, the Epinions Community Care team will begin sharing site updates right here in the Message Center. Here are the latest updates:
June Hits, MPA/MPA, TER
While Income Share for June has been paid out the visit counts are not up to date. We've encountered some delays in updating the hits for June. This has delayed the updates to MPR/MPA/TER. We hope to have everything completed before the end of the week.
Media Category Migration
On Wednesday, July 16th, we are going to migrate the Media Categories (Books, Music, Video & DVDs) to the Shopping.com catalog. You may experience intermittent issues in the Media Category between 3pm and 5pm PT on Wednesday, July 16th. This update does not include Movies in Theaters as this is an Epinions only category (i.e. it's not shown on Shopping.com today). We will work on Movies in Theaters later this year. SAP in Media will be live on July 23rd. That means that all reviews in these categories will start using the /review/ format. The problems associated with this url format will be resolved by the end of this week. Products added via SAP will be in Search.
As a result of this migration, a small number of reviews will not be mapped corrrectly to products. These reviews, however, will still be accessible to the author, community, and shopper. You will see the "Category/Vertical not found" message in your profile pages. We plan to create many of the unmapped products using the Suggest A Product feature, which will be accessible after July 23rd. Please do not take action on the unmapped reviews at this time. The unmapped reviews associated with the new products will be mapped by us. Following the Media migration, our goal is to quickly migrate the remaining categories to ensure system/catalog stability going into the shopping season.

Posted: Tuesday, May 6, 2008
I would like to follow Andy's post with some of my own reflections. There's no doubt about it - this is a sad day for Epinions, the team, and for me personally. Andy is a special person - his commitment to Epinions is unwavering, his passion for our community is deep, and his contributions to our team here in Brisbane are powerful. We have been lucky to have him for 8 years. (As context, a gallon of gas when Andy started was $1.83.) We will all miss Andy.
One of the great things about working in Silicon Valley is the access to great talent; one of the downsides is that other companies grab great talent. This has now happened quickly with Andy and Garrett. We are working swiftly to hire, and I am committed to getting the right people on the Community Care team. In the meantime, I ask for your support and patience. There may be things that we forget to do; there may be balls that will be dropped. When that happens, let us know - and we'll work hard to fix it. I promise you that.
Good luck, Andy! We'll see you on the boards!

Thank You For 8 Great Years!
Posted: Tuesday, May 6, 2008
Dear Epinions Community,
Today I must announce that I am moving on from my role at Shopping.com and Epinions. My experience writing and working with this community over the past 8 years has been one of the most rewarding of my life. I am grateful to all of you for helping make Epinions great. It has truly been a wonderful time in my career to serve you. Now is the time for me to move on, however, and tackle different challenges. Wednesday, May 7th, is my last day with the company and in June I will be starting a new position with an exciting startup in San Francisco.
You probably know that we already have some open positions on the Community Care team following Garrett’s departure, and we are working swiftly to hire. In the short term we will rely on our CLs, Pehr, Almar, and the Engineering staff to carry the community through this transition. Please offer them your support, your patience, your knowledge, and all the help you can. Almar should be your primary contact for the time being: almar@shopping.com. Almar is a seasoned community veteran and I know you'll find him a great guy to work with. And of course, you can also contact Pehr (pluedtke@shopping.com) anytime.
I was writing for Epinions for many months before I worked here, and I intend to keep writing. You will see me around and I’ll be helping the staff as much as I can from the sidelines. I’ll be taking a much-needed vacation for about a month, during which I won’t be available, but I am already looking forward to coming back and seeing you all on the site.
Go Epinions!

Farewell Garrett!
Posted: Wednesday, April 9, 2008
Dear Community Members,
It's with much gratitude and more than a little sadness that I announce Garrett Gonzales is moving on from his role at Epinions.com. Garrett's last day with the company will be this Friday, April 11th.
Garrett started at Epinions just about 8 years ago and has contributed tremendous strength, guidance, and support to the Epinions staff and community in his time here. Garrett has been like a rock through the good and the bad, and has in no small part helped make Epinions one of the most successful communities on the web. We all have fond memories of Garrett helping us through one tough situation or another, and we will all miss him terribly. As he turns to the next chapter in his career, we send him off with gratitude and affection.
I am happy to announce, however, that Garrett has earned a hat! User roheblius will stay involved with the community as a message board moderator. I ask you all to keep in mind that Garrett will not be an employee in this capacity and it will be important not to lean on him more than you would any other community member. You should consider me your primary point of contact and always use our bug and abuse forms to report site issues.
I know many of you will want to give Garrett a shout out. We’ve opened this message boards thread for everyone.
Thank you Garrett! We'll miss you!

New Category Leads in Games and Books
Posted: Wednesday, September 19, 2007
We have added two new Category Leads to the CL ranks. Jeremy1456 has been writing video game reviews since April of 2001. He has great gaming knowledge, a calm demeanor and is a perfect fit to go alongside KJell1979. Panguitch is going to join Pearannoyed and Arianej in Books and Magazine Subscriptions. Panguitch is a very respected member and we are lucky to have him.
With the joy of adding new Category Leads to the mix comes the sadness of saying goodbye to now former CLs who they are replacing. 32_footsteps and Redlass were pioneering CLs in their respective categories. They gave us great feedback and helped make the CL program what it is today. Even though real life and other commitments caused them to step down from their roles, we hope that they will continue to bring their positive influences to the site.
Thank You Christal! Christal Says Goodbye

Au Revoir.
After 7 ½ years with Epinions.com, it is time for me to bid you all farewell. I’ve enjoyed every minute of it and wouldn’t trade it for anything.
Being able to work with such a passionate and dedicated community has taught me a lot. You are all amazing!
You are in good hands with Garrett, so be kind to him and the rest of the Epinions staff. I won’t be too far and hope to continue to keep in contact with you all through out the site.
It’s been a fun ride!
All the best,
Christal
