10MinuteMail upgraded again

Saturday, November 3rd, 2007

Moved up to Seam 2.0 CR3, and JBoss 4.2.2. I also optimized some code, got rid of some useless error logging, etc...

Hopefully it will perform a little better:) So far it seems to process incoming e-mail much faster, which was a bottleneck under load.

Enjoy!

Another small 10MinuteMail.com update

Sunday, September 23rd, 2007

I just pushed up the latest version of 10MinuteMail. Now there are 29 languages supported! I've also upgraded the Seam version to 2.0.0.CR1 and the JBoss version to 4.2.1.GA. I am hoping that this will help fix some of the recent OutOfMemory issues I've seen.

Check it out, tell your friends, link to it, enjoy it, and let me know how I can make it better!

Thanks!

10MinuteMail.com mentioned in Jobacle podcast

Tuesday, September 4th, 2007

10MinuteMail was highlighted in the latest podcast (#70) from jobacle.com. I've been listening to a couple of their podcasts and it seems like a good site and a podcast that is definately worth your time, so check it out here: jobacle.com

If you see 10MinuteMail mentioned anywhere else, let me know:)

Minor 10MinuteMail.com update

Sunday, August 19th, 2007

A minor release to 10MinuteMail just went out. It adds a few languages and language cleanups, bringing us up to 26 supported languages!!! Thanks to all those who have volunteered their time!

There's also a new feature to grab a new e-mail address at any time. Mail sent to your old address(es) will still show up in your inbox page (as long as your session is still active). Check it out. That comes as a special request. If you have a feature request, e-mail me.

Enjoy!

Updated 10MinuteMail.com

Friday, August 10th, 2007

I just launched an updated version of 10MinuteMail.com. I gave it a new look and feel. Hopefully people like it. I've also added a neat link which will copy the e-mail address into your clip-board for you, so you don't have to select and copy yourself. It uses a combination of javascript and Flash and seems to work on every browser. And I swapped in a new e-mail domain of fishfuse.com as the old domain was getting an amazing amount of spam daily (around 250k).

Behind the scenes I've upgraded to Seam 2.0beta, which went smoothly enough, once I remembered that I'd modified the build.xml in some important ways, and the initial issues weren't releated to the Seam upgrade, but to the build not setting a few custom flags. Easily solved.

Tell me what you think of the new site, and give me feedback or suggestions for new features.

Thanks!
