Hey guys he could be dyslexic, and might have flipped his letters and what came out came out. Anyway, please please move forward we are meant to not tear down but lift people up...regardless they spelled something wrong...or regarding this whole thread which really should have a knot tied to it.

Well, I just have to point out something. Ali misspelled America, spelled it Uhmerika!

I'm not even a Bookshare member. I spend my free time VOLUNTEERING for Bookshare, which benefits me in no way at all. I could be spending my free time doing a number of other things. So there's no need to thank me, either, for my hard work over the last at least six years as a volunteer. Maybe I won't do it anymore.On Sat, Apr 21, 2012 at 6:53 PM, Ali Al-hajamy <aalhajamy@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:Oh, man. I hate it when I think an activity which required me to doabsolutely nothing labour-intensive failed on this here Bookshare thing, and then I find out later that it actually went well with a few minor problems. That's the worst. Which is why I then send a querulous, pointless complaintto a mailing list full of people who (a) already know this issue exists,have discussed it many times before, and, so far as I'm aware, learned to just deal with it, and (b) don't have the connections or resources to fix it when I want it fixed, that, of course, being now now now, right this second, in fact, who needs to be patient and wait for the engineering team to fixthings that are higher up on their list of priorities first when you canjust be loud and obnoxious and get what you want now, because that solvesall of life's problems in UHMERIKA!PS: I went ahead and changed your subject line for you.

As usual I got to the final step, where you can put in comments and that's the last step. It hangs. It hangs. It hangs. At 5:04 I got a notice that the site was having difficulties and I should try later. Except if I wanted to submit a book LATER, I'd be doing it later. I wouldn't be doing it at 4:39 in the morning. Later I'm going to be sleeping. So when I get up today I start to submit the book again. Good thing I checked my submissions list. It's listed there as being submitted at 3:38 a.m. And at 6:17 I got an email saying my book had been submitted. How was I supposed to know? The page never refreshed to say hey your book went through. I wish if the site was having difficulties it would say so on the FIRST step. Not on the LAST step. Then I wouldnt' bother to spend so much time sitting and waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting to see if it's going to go through, because you cannot move off that tab either, you have to stay active on the Bookshare tab or, in my experience, it takes even LONGER to submit, or won't submit at all. So much for the modern windows multitasking, right? Bookshare needs to catch up with the times.To unsubscribe from this list send a blank Email to bksvol-discuss-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxxput the word 'unsubscribe' by itself in the subject line.
