This Saturday night, US Pacific time, siftbot has ordered us to upgrade VideoSift to the fantastic, new version 4.0.
During the upgrade, the Sift will have to be put into Razzleberry mode. It will probably take a couple of hours, but good things come to those who wait.
We can't wait for you all to see what v4.0 has to offer. Siftbot has outdone itself this time. We'll catch you on the flip side.

Also can't wait for the reactions. Personally I promise not to bitch too much
Any particular hour of the night? Should that read, "This Saturday at midnight, PDT, ...?"
Are you all wearing Nike sneakers as well?
Also, do our queued submissions get extra hours extensions?
Blocked videos. Particularly from Comedy Central - can there be a 'Blocked' box to check alongside 'Brief' 'Long' and 'NSFW' when submitting so that they are automatically marked as blocked before submission, therefore sparing users from having to mark them blocked, and for anyone else viewing, sparing them the small amount of time/frustration that comes from realizing you can't view all these quality Colbert/Dailyshow/etcetera clips?
Man a ranted a bit off topic. I can't wait to see the new layout of 4.0.
I just hope there wasn't a coup that disposed Dag to takeover videosift and created 4.0.(lol). anyway cheers.
Will there be a meebo chat in the mean time?
Certainly. (For all the uninitiated, the meebo chatroom is titled "Razzleberry" which is what I was referring to ^up above).

Can you lose the votes on all the videos again, that was fun.
Oh, absolutely. That's the biggest new feature in v4.0. Not only will we delete all votes, but all the videos too!

Nope, no particular hour. Just whenever I become available to start working.

I'm scared!!

Hmm. Interesting question. I won't make any promises, but I'll keep that point in mind. Trying to muck with stuff like that can cause unforeseen problems (particularly if I make a mistake and screw it up) and I'll already have a few hours worth of mountainous tasks on my plate.
Just a thought.
I think a nice addition would be the ability to combine channel searches. For instance, when I click on channels, I would like to be able to select Comedy AND News , and see all videos with both tags.
Just a thought.

Whenever he is ready. He must be drunk right now or still in bed?
My booze-o-meter is shortening my shelf life tonight. I'm hoping he's an early bird... Lucky is west coast U.S. right?
I thought they were in Australia or somewhere down there.
^just Dag.. or has Lucky moved down under too?
Ah, I thought it was both. Wow, they work together in two different countries. Amazing!
Still about 1 hour away from razzleberry mode.
Panic, everyone!!
Good luck, 'yall. just out of curiosity, are you two sitting there on vidcam w/ eachother reading this thread and snickering?
They should set up cams so we can watch them work.
A cam would be very boring on my end. I'm lieing in bed nursing a migraine. Lucky is managing all the updates from his side.
oh, I'm seriously so sorry...I get migraines...computer screen on very very low brightness if at all...the good news is that it does end ~ eventually.
*smooch on forehead*
Dag, you need Goodys headache powders... pretty much Tylenol, aspirin and caffeine. They work though!
