This weekend, the following was posted in the comments here at Boosterrific.com Blog for a post about last year's Comic Con.

That's awesome Geoff Johns is writing another episode of Smallville, I liked what he did with the Justice Society in a previous episode. I don't know your personal preference, but I need my Smallville in HD. Just to let you know, DISH Network has plenty of affordable packages with HD right now and you can find information on how to get free HD on DISH Network's official website. Don't you want to see Smallville in HD?

A friend of the site pointed it out and suggested that I delete it as obvious viral marketing. However, the commenter, Bob (bot or not?), was careful to respond to the content of the original post and did not include a direct link to the site he is clearly shilling for. I happen to think that Booster Gold would be particularly pleased by this sort of viral marketing, so I think it should remain a valid comment here on the site, don't you?

Besides, I do kind of want to see Booster Gold in Smallville in HD.

(This comment also included encoding translation error artifacts, exactly like a post last week by Erin. Two in one week; it's a sign! I therefore took the time to adapt the script to eliminate these irritating bugs. Hopefully.)

This week's addition to Boosterrific.com is a relatively small one: a search feature. Now site visitors can quickly and easily find content in issue details, annotations, reviews, blog posts, comments, and forums. It doesn't have the most robust system for parsing search queries, and the number of responses returned per search are quite limited to speed up the search. Those limitations aside, it should still be able to get you in the ballpark of your target if you're looking for something that you didn't otherwise know how to find.

Justice League International Volume 5, collecting Justice League International Annual #2 and #3 plus early issues of the JLE, is scheduled for release today. There's definitely some Booster Gold in that. And I'm not making any promises, but it seems very likely that Booster will at least get a mention in Power Girl #20, the events of which take place between Justice League: Generation Lost issues #16 and #17.

And if that's not enough to tide you over until the next Booster Gold release, be aware that I've combined and updated the house advertisements/psa page to try to make them more user friendly. The ads are now easier to find, presented on one page for your browsing enjoyment. Boosterrific.com is always working to serve you better!

Not 100 blog posts. No, this blog passed 100 posts last June; it celebrates it's one-year anniversary this week.

I mean congratulations on the over 100 blog posts already in the one-week old Boosterrific Forum. That's far more immediate acceptance than I had expected. Thanks for the support, posters!

Greet the week with a new toy: introducing the Boosterrific.com forum. I hope that it will be used to spread the glory of The Man of Gold. Comments will still be allowed for all blog posts. I suspect that most of you probably know how to use a web forum already, so I won't post instructions. Go, use it, enjoy.
