The Overclocked Email and Chat Services

Friday, October 13th, 2006

We are proud to announce the arrival of email and chat services.

The Overclocked Members can now apply for an email address from The Overclocked. Yeah, that’s right, another email that you will never check.

Guess again! We at The Overclocked work on a different playing field then that of similar companies. Our email services are provided on behalf of Google. Your account will be in the Google Mail client interface and will come with 2 GB of storage as well! Amazing huh? Well there’s more.

We are also providing chat services on behalf of Google. You can now use your Google Talk client to chat with other members!

Pretty wild and crazy stuff ey? No doubt!

Get your account today! Just post a reply in this thread and I’ll get your account up and going! You will then receive your login details via PM.

*The Chat services in this offer are not to be taken as a chat room.

Update!
You can add all of your email accounts to this account! That way you only have one inbox to check all of your email addresses! Account Aliases can also be created upon request! See post five for details on these features.

The Overclocked Blogs

Tuesday, August 15th, 2006

Today, I am proud to announce the grand opening of The Overclocked Blogs. This is a free service to all members of The Overclocked Forums with ten posts or more.

All blogs are powered by Wordpress, and are setup on an individually. Check out the home page for them as an example at http://blogs.theoverclocked.com

Feel free to start your own blog. All you have to do is drop me a PM letting me know that you want one and what you want the main title to be. I will then get you all setup and e-mail you your password so you can start blogging!

Hope you all enjoy the new blogs!

EDIT: Forgot to mention, you can create “pages” too which can have anything you want on them. You can use them to display your rig or whatever you’d like

EDIT 2- 8/16: There has been some confusion on how these blogs are setup. Each user has their own blog and has complete administration over their own blog. The usernames and passwords do NOT share a common database, meaning you cannot log into your blog from another blog on the server. Sorry for the confusion.

Also, if you havn’t already read through this thread, all blogs must conform to the forum rules in terms of content and so fourth.
