Additional domain

2010-04-13T17:04:32Z

We've acquired veganguide.de. Thanks to the former owner.

Did we fool you?

2010-04-02T07:58:15Z

I hope noone was in real doubt that yesterdays layout and blog post was just an aprils fool.

Bacon is the new vegan!

2010-04-01T14:29:32Z

Since staying vegan all the time is boring and eating bacon ist the next big thing, we completely changed the focus of veganguide.org towards tasty bacon. Mmmh, bacon. I need to get some yummy bacon right now. See ya.

We moved...

2010-03-08T23:30:23Z

veganguide.org has moved to a new server. We\'re now hosted at netzguerilla.net. This new server comes with far mor reliability at the same costs. So far the migration process went really smooth. If you expierience any problems, let me know.

A new design

2010-02-02T02:33:59Z

As you may have noticed, we tweaked our design a little bit.

Never standing in front of a closed store...

2009-06-16T04:14:58Z

For all the people begging and bugging me to bring a delete-button into the vegan guide: I will never do that. But i\'ve got something better: A this-place-is-gone-button. Right.

Now you can mark places as closed, so people using this vegan guide will never again (or at least less frequently) stand in front of a closed shop or restaurant. And the people searching for their most-loved place will notice it\'s gone. Right before they book a flight. Because the description page is still here and it has now a big red warning sign above it if the place is gone.

Its magic. Its awesome. Dadada. Does anyone actually read this?

Introducing: The veganguide developers API

2009-02-07T06:47:10Z

Months ago someone asked me to provide an API for veganguide.org, so he could build an iPhone app for mobile access to your nearest vegan restaurants. I remember we had great plans, but i hadn\'t the time to do something within the next days, weeks, months... until now. Yep, here it is: The veganguide developers API.

I know it\'s just a basic set of methods and it does not provide all the functionality we dreamed about yet. But hey, it\'s a start. Enjoy!

Discuss!

2009-01-27T09:45:10Z

I\'m proud to introduce a new part of the vegan guide: the new discussion board. It has been planned a long time and was hacked together last night. Enjoy!

UI Improvements

2009-01-24T21:57:10Z

Here they are: some improvements of the user interface and the translation matrix. Yep, currently i am working heavily to make the site better.

Note to myself

2009-01-07T08:42:53Z

Some things i need to do:

Proper licensing interface for photos
Nudging inactive users
Writing down FAQs
Implementing an API for XML-RPC
iPhone view
Complete i18n
Extending the site for recipes, reviews and ean/upc-based ingredient-lists

A little twitter

2009-01-07T05:43:24Z

Not much has happened last year so far. Too many things whirring around on my todo-list. Nonetheless i have some spare time right now, so i work on some awesome ideas and fixing up some things.

Anyway, now you can follow the sites updates on twitter: twitter.com/veganguide — I will even try to answer question and receive suggestions through this channel.

Ein wenig gezwitscher

2009-01-07T05:34:18Z

Ja, leider ist im vergangenen Jahr nicht viel passiert. Mir schwirren zu viele andere Projekte auf meiner To-Do-Liste herum. Trotzdem habe ich gerade im Moment ein wenig Zeit und arbeite an ein paar tollen Ideen und korrigiere dies und jenes.

Immerhin könnt Ihr den Updates dieser Seite nun auch per twittr folgen: twitter.com/veganguide — Ich werde sogar versuchen, über diesen kanal Fragen zu beantworten und Vorschläge entgegenzunehmen.

Communication difficulties

2008-01-28T09:06:08Z

Our contact mail adress, info@veganguide.org, didn't work for the last week. We fixed it. Whoever tried to write an email may try it again now.

Kontaktschwierigkeiten?

2008-01-28T09:03:57Z

Die Kontaktadresse des Vegan Guides, info@veganguide.org, hat in den letzten Wochen nicht funktioniert. Jetzt läuft alles wieder. Wer versucht hat, eine E-Mail zu schicke, darf's also nochmal versuchen.

Bremen und Dresden

2008-01-27T21:16:13Z

Die Gruppe aspekt:antispe hat einen Vegan Guide für Bremen veröffentlicht. Danke hierfür!

Ansonsten will ich mal einen Tipp abgeben, für alle, die in Dresden unterwegs sind: Das Electric Lotus hat ein überwiegend veganes Angebot, ist günstig und lecker, steckt aber derzeit in finanziellen Schwierigkeiten. Wenn ihr daran interessiert seid, vegane Kultur in der Neustadt zu fördern, dann geht dort essen!

Volunteering in translation!

2007-11-16T02:21:06Z

Maybe you noticed it, French and Polish were added to the available languages. That is caused by Marc from vegan.fr and Jule from Kraków volunteering in the internationalization. Thank you!

If you are motivated to mak veganguide.org available in another language, let us know!

Besides i improved the submission of new places. Now the #500 post can emerge :)

Ãbersetzen helfen!

2007-11-16T02:15:42Z

Vielleicht habt ihr es schon bemerkt, bei den verfügbaren Sprachen sind Französisch und Polnisch hinzugekommen. Das liegt daran, dass Marc von vegan.fr und Jule aus Kraków bei der Übersetzung helfen. Vielen Dank!

Wenn nun auch du motiviert bist, den Veganguide in einer weiteren Sprache verfügbar zu machen, dann melde Dich!

Ansonsten habe ich die Eintragung von neuen Orten überarbeitet. Dann kann der fünfhundertste Eintrag ja kommen :)
