This news section is a little extra-extra-read-all-about-it for you guys and gals who are wondering what's going on behind the giant doors and tight security of the 8 Days a Week global command center.

A few people have asked to see dates in the future or past. While the primary use of the site is to show just the current and upcoming weeks'  events, I recognize some users will want to see earlier and later dates. So, to see any specific date, just hack the URL with the following formating:

Start with:  www.8daysaweek.org/events/day/
then type in the year (ex: 2008) / the month (ex: 08) / the date (ex: 06).

So to look at events on October 23rd, type in: www.8daysaweek.org/events/day/2008/10/23. This works for events both in the future and past, though please recognize I try not to track events more than 3 months out, since it is difficult to keep up with changes.

Welcome to 8daysaweek.org! It's up and working, which trust me is a big step. You'll probably notice a few little bugs and glitches here and there, but I'm seeing the fruition of many evenings and weekends behind the computer screen. I'm working on those bugs by the way... this is going to be a (very) soft roll out. Sort of like a "beta" version of a site only I hate the term beta and don't want to stick a big "beta" sign all over the top of the page. Anyway, consider it beta in disguise.
Over the next few months, look for some updates to the features and functions of the site. I already have a list of improvements that seems to be growing daily, which will be implemented as time and budget allow. I'll keep you updated via this news page on what to expect, and to get your opinions on what to prioritize.
So thanks for the support, tell a friend and check back often!
