Hi, everyone! It's time to celebrate some very important people on the site! As you hopefully know by now, Cookie Connection stays the vibrant, enriching place that it is in large part because of the hard work and generosity of our contributors...
Great news! Many of our Cookie Connection contributors (and yours truly) were recently interviewed for and just featured in this weekend piece for Canada's National Post by cookie enthusiast Natalie Jesionka. As the title suggests...
It dawned on me recently - thanks to an astute question by a member - that I'd forgotten how to follow another member on this site. And so, I thought I'd figure it out and fill you in, as following others is a great way to...
Hi, all. I upgraded to a new version of Crowdstack today to test a possible new feature addition to the site. Unfortunately, a side, unexpected consequence of the change was...

Hi, all! I'm here to talk about a recent change to our site's Terms of Use that is related to cookies. No, I'm not talking about the type of cookies that we all know and love so well. I'm talking about the cookies that are...
Hello, everyone! I have bittersweet news for you. I'll cut to the chase...
So, everyone, there was another unannounced site update today, which changed a few things that only impact me. However, it changed one thing that impacts all of us greatly...
Hi, all! I will keep this post brief, as I am on vacation, but please read it. It is very important. In recent weeks, I have cited a few people for use of copied work without permission.

Hi, all! Another update on some site changes . . . As you hopefully know by now, our last site upgrade was the Reactions Release, which, about two months ago, replaced our liking feature for clips, blog posts, and other content with many, many more options for reacting. I love the...
As you may know from my recent forum post , I was as surprised as you all by yesterday's site upgrade. (Somehow the advance notices about it never made it to my inbox, or I would have warned you.) Anywho . . . since the upgrade, I've been running around, testing the various changes and figuring out which ones most impact you, so I could give you this update.
