WebCopy 2.0 - Rules and Query Strings

Some of the most frustrating support requests we deal with tend to be people trying to copy forums using WebCopy. While it's technically possible, it's not an easy thing. Forums can have many thousands of links, and a lot of them are replicated many times for "new posts" and "replies" and so on. In most cases, copying this is not what you want as it adds zero value to the copy. This topic describes briefly the approaches we are looking at and prototyping for the next version of WebCopy.

Announcing the Product Blog

This site has operated a blog for several years now, but it is mostly focused on .NET development topics. Occasionally I've wanted to post product specific information, but haven't wanted to put this in the blog as for all intents and purposes, cyotek.com has two different audiences - those who download and use our [products](/products) and those who consume our [source](/source-code) [code](/open-source). I'd be betting that there's not a lot of cross over between the two! Finally, we've added a dedicated product blog and some more product-centric RSS feeds.
