Warren's honor is really our honor... (4/9/2008) Warren's award for community service through the West Seattle Chamber of Commerce took place this morning (the 9th of April). Warren is more than honored to receive this prestigious award and join the company in the likes of Earl Cruzen, last year's award winner. Although we are not a news site, and don't pretend to be one, we felt this was worth mentioning on our home page. As with any recipient of the community service award, the true recipient of this type of service is not the award winner, but rather the community they serve. We are truly honored to have warren as part of our community and as an inspiration for generations to come.
Update on site status (6/4/2008) Well, what we thought was a localized attack has become a world wide attack on IIS and SQL servers from someone taking advantage of Microsoft's penchant for allowing commands to be sent by query string. We're not worried about telling anyone this as the bot has already attacked over 500,000 systems world wide and has been investgated by the FBI already. We continue to work on solving the issue and keep the site flowing smoothly. Your continued support and help is appreciated.
Hackers try and take over our system (5/21/2008)
As they say when you plug your machine into the internet, "It's not a matter of if you will be hacked, but how long until when you are hacked." Even with our security measures, we had a group insert some information into our real estate database that was forcing browsers to redirect to a porn site. For this, we are extremely apologetic. We cannot tell you how upset we are over this issue. To take a family oriented informational resource site and try to turn it into a traffic generating bot site for a porn site is...well, reprehensible. We believe we have installed the neccessary patches and fixes (of which there were many MSFT remote executable code holes) that would fix the issue. We're here to serve you, so if you run into any "Weird" things on the site that we didn't see, don't hesitate to drop us an email so we can jump right on it.
Site Running 100% and Maps Updated (5/9/2008) The site is running 100%. On top of that, we have updated the maps. We're constantly working to bring quality up to date and relevant map data that reflects a local set of information. Coverage on map items that only our community members would know or want to know about. Take a look.
GAMES! The new and improved word searches are here, and online. Make sure the latest JAVA engine is installed (www.java.com) and then click on the game you would like to play. We have arcade games, and for those of us with more time, a great little word search. Try it out.
This is the official site for the West Seattle Community. Originally started as a
partnership between private funds and public support through the city of Seattle,
the West Seattle Chamber and other prominent community leaders, the site became
official. Here you can find just about anything relating to West Seattle. From the
long colorful history of this beautiful suburb of Seattle to the latest happenings
and Summer Events.
FYI - Did you know there are over 58,000 persons in West Seattle. We would be the 5th largest city in
Washington should we decide to incorporate. West Seattle's #1 Yellow Pages and
ORIGINAL Community Website.
