For those of you who visit CODECALL daily (thank you for coming so often), you might have noticed that the site was down since 9PM PST and finally came back online around 11:45AM today. To make sure everyone is aware of what happened (lost threads, posts, messages, etc.), I put up a notice across the site to notify everyone:
Due to an unsuccessful upgrade of vBulletin v4.10 last night, we had to restore the site to a previous backup. Although we made a backup of the site right before
Saw an interest blog entry by Nullw0rm about W3C Validator (for mobile), so decided to post a follow up WRT CodeCall. If you take a look right now on the Validator out, forum.codecall.net return a huge number of errors. Since we are planning to make a server move tonight and revert back to a vanilla version of vB, I wonder if that will reduce the errors (and hence make the site easier to "crawl" by Search Engines).
Here is the current CC snapshot:

I have a PHP programming challenge.
I can probably write this out in a few hours, but I wanted to see there is any interest from the members here. It's not that difficult, but I am looking for an elegant solution.
Background: I was doing some research on Google Labs and saw that they have a cool tool (Google Related Links - Overview) which displays multiple "related links" to a particular page. I tried to sign up for it (for use with CodeCall and my other site),
Since I joined CodeCall 6 weeks ago, I have been thinking (a lot) about how to improve the traffic to our site. While I had some time, I reviewed some external historic traffic data and notice that, at one point, CC was getting almost 4x the traffic it is today... so I wonder why the drop happened?? and what can we do to improve the traffic?
Any thoughts or suggestions?

Took the Fundamental Exam yesterday at Google Certification Program. Beside my past experiences with SEM, I basically read through the material on Google AdWords Learning Center twice and went for it. The questions were generally straight-forward. However, I got stumped by some Video ads questions since I've never used Video ads before. In the end, I passed with 87% (80% to pass).
I will probably study more for the next exam (Search Advertising Advanced Exam) or at least try more
