Sometimes things just go downright bad. After two weeks of hardcore promoting and going door-to-door and dorm-to-dorm with my associate, it was just last night that it became apparent Walamu was not letting users post their items. I was wondering why I wasn’t getting any new posts…

By the looks of it, we lost out on at least 30 new users posting books at a horrible time considering this is the time of year when most students are selling their textbooks.

Yeah that news didn’t make for a good night. Throw final exams on top of that and you’ve got a real recipe for a not-so-great mood.

It should have been caught earlier, but I figured I would have gotten a feedback email from a user if the site was not working properly. Now I know not to rely on that.

The site is in working order now and hits are at their all-time high. I’m going to use what I learned this semester and do everything I can to propel Walamu to the next level for the spring semester.
