The Death of Ning Networks!

  As we announced in April; we are migrating our Ning hosted networks to our new home at Spruz. We are pleased to say that we are finishing up this migration and plan to wrap up this exodus somewhere around the middle of June. Having said that, we have scheduled a date for demolition of our old Ning networks. We believe that to avoid confusion of where to find our new networks and in the rights of privacy that this is a necessary step. We know that Ning will take control of free accounts in July and this could lead to your private information becoming a part of the Ning agenda to turn a profit. So to keep from having your information from falling into the hands of a greedy corporation where the bottom line is how much of a return the investors are receiving; we will be deleting our Ning hosted networks on Monday June 28, 2010.

   This demolition will include all greyeyesgabriel international networks hosted on the Ning platform. If you are a member of these networks you will need to follow the migration link to our new Spruz hosted networks before Monday June 28, 2010. By this point, ever member should have been notified by email about the changes. If you have posted content to the Ning networks, then you will need to migrate your content as well, Ning has not provided developers with a way to migrate content, just member data. After Monday June 28, 2010; all content remaining on greyeyesgabriel international Ning hosted accounts will be deleted and pass into nonexistence. We hope that you all will migrate with us; however, whether you do or not, your profile and all content will be gone after Monday June 28, 2010.

  We hope this migration has not been too much of an inconvenience for our clients and we have taken measures to ensure that this type of thing never happens to you or us again. We look forward to you joining us in our exciting new home with a young company, like ourselves, and growing better than ever before. We look forward to growth and opportunities that Ning would never offer to free or paid account holders and hope you come along on the ride. See you at our new home at Spruz, and thank you for supporting the greyeyesgabriel brand.

  P.S. This will include all CosmicSpores Pods hosted at Ning!

CosmicSpores New Home!

As we announced in our last post; we are in the process of moving the CosmicSporesWebwork to our new provider, Spruz. Well, our main CosmicSpores network is now up and running; all of the Doctors are there, even if their profiles aren't complete. But we are ready for you to come join us; be involved on the ground floor as we start over. 

Development is moving steadily in the right direction; however, you might come across some very underdeveloped apps, websites, or widgets. We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused and we are working as quickly as we can to return to something resembling normal. On a positive note, the WarpZone should be back up soon as the Logo redesign is wrapping up in our graphics department. It's going to be a whole new world when we finish; or at least get caught up. We look forward to seeing you on our new Networks.

We will be deleting our Ning networks soon; there is a date of termination being discussed at greyeyesgabriel international. It is looking as if it will be sometime in June/July of Summer 2010, so make sure you get your profile transferred soon. CosmicSpores Summer of 2010, let the fun begin!

We are moving... Click here to setup your new account.

2 Years Later; Starting Over...

 ...grow yourself. This is the philosophy of the self funded company Spruz; and they are a company much like our mother company, greyeyesgabriel international. All of us have experienced some ups and downs throughout our development, things that worked, things that didn't. If you have followed the greyeyesgabriel brand then you know what we are talking about; if you are just finding out about CosmicSpores and the greyeyesgabriel international connection, then you may have noticed a lot of changes going on here and you are in the middle of it. See, earlier this month, Ning (Our former exclusive provider of our free social platform on their network.) announced that they would be "phasing out the free program." It seems that not even Ning knows how to make money with their Ning!

  We were notified about the changes from our HQ @greyeyesgabrielinternational and they found out about it from a news source online, even though they get the Ning newsletter & advertisements, from Ning! The only release of this information came from their Blog! It spread through mainstream through viral advertising; the same way that their company had been able to grow over the past 2 years. The same method used to build them up; will, in the opinion of greyeyesgabriel, "...lead to the destruction of the Ning platform as they join the ranks of Pagii." CosmicSpores just just got caught on-board the vessel, we didn't expect the ship to sink; yet, here we are floating in the water with the sharks!

   Luckily there is a branch of hope extended to us from the USS Spruz! If you are a Ning refugee floating in the water with the sharks; then this would be a great network to join on the Spruz platform, Nings Refugees; there are already over 300 of us on-board. We are so glad that we teamed with greyeyesgabriel international and have had the honor of greyeyesgabriel working on our websites directly; you should have seen the mixed up mess we had before Dr. Victor Webber met greyeyesgabriel. We are proud to be affiliated with the greyeyesgabriel brand and just wanted to announce the move; we are so excited to see what he puts together for us here with the feature rich Spruz! Come grow with all of us, this is about to get good!!
