Happy New Year, flans! Yes, I have been slacking a bit lately in terms of keeping up with the new episodes. Basically I work full time and part-time, which leaves, well, very little time for much else. I'm sure many of you can relate. Anyway, I just added clips from Crime Aid, so enjoy!

Also, BuddyTV.com has nominated Jim & Pam for TV couple of the year! Go vote for them here: Vote for JAM!

Until next time (hopefully sooner than later!)...

Hello everyone! Long time no update, I know....

First, I would like to welcome BuddyTV.com and StarPulse.com to the Links & FAQ page. Both sites have some really great Office content.

BuddyTV has interviews with Jenna and Melora on their site from a few weeks ago (again, I know I'm late on this, but I thought I would share anyway!)

Click here to see the BuddyTV interviews!

As for this site, I am still playing catch-up, but fear not, the site will be updated with new clips as soon as possible. :) I have been working on Deleted Scenes and the first couple Season 5 episodes and I hope to have some new content very soon, though I can't promise a specific time frame due to my hectic schedule.

How about these first 3 episodes though?! Michael going for it with Holly already - woohoo! JAM in a long distance relationship makes me a little sad, but they are still so freaking cute and I loved the end of last night's episode. It looks like we're in for another great season, my fellow flans!

Probably tomorrow. Without going into too much gory detail, I am having a problem with the audio files, that's why it is taking so long. Should be resolved tomorrow if all goes well :) Sorry for the delay, kids.

Stay tuned!

I just finished uploading them all - enjoy! It is so nice to have new episodes on TV again!!!

A few other things:
I have added the "Talking Head" tag per a number of suggestions. It will take a while, but I do plan to go through the existing quotes to add the tag as necessary.

I will also be working on season 2 and 3 deleted scene clips, and some from season 4 as I have the time. Many of you who have been waiting on requests are waiting because you requested a clip from a deleted scene for which I didn't have the audio readily available. Over the strike I rounded them up as much as possible so I can get to the remaining requests, plus whatever other clips I think should be posted. Thank you all who have been waiting patiently for your request(s)!

Finally, I am going to add this to the requests page, but I wanted to say it here too: please do not request audio that is not from an episode or deleted scene. This includes anything from the blooper reels, DVD commentary, etc. I am keeping the site strictly to audio that applies to the storylines, with very few exceptions (specifically, the Fake PSAs that aired on TV). As someone from the show staff has said (I think it was Greg Daniels, but I am not positive) the deleted scenes do "count" as events that actually happened in the lives of the characters. Thanks in advance :)

This week's episode "Chair Model" looks hilarious, I can't wait for more new Office!!

Finally, I got them all into the database. Hopefully we won't have to wait too much longer for the strike to be over. I know I'm not the only one going through Office withdrawal! I support all of the amazing writers out there (especially those who write for The Office!) and hope that everyone can come to an agreement quickly so we can all enjoy new episodes of our favorite shows again.

Also, I have made a change to one of the site features that I think everyone will appreciate. For those of you who have javascript enabled (which, I presume, is the vast majority of you all) you can now rate quotes without having to wait for the page to reload! For the techy folks: I have made the ratings feature AJAX-enabled. This means that the ratings happen behind the scenes, and it doesn't take a page reload to process ratings. Basically, you can rate quotes much quicker. I've tested it in Safari, Firefox and IE7 with no problems. If you don't have javascript, or there is a problem processing the rating through the AJAX method, it falls back to the old page-reload method. So, your rating should get captured either way.

Until next time... :)

I just finished adding clips from the deleted scenes of ALL of season 1! Also, I (finally) added a user-submitted MIXmatch from Zach M.B. Sorry it took me so long, Zach! If you've made a MIXmatch yourself, or if you have a suggestion for one, please email it to me! I've received some good suggestions, and I'm hoping to put them together soon.

I'd also like to mention I've added 2 new links to the Links & FAQ page - "Bitcoms" on TBS.com, and another Office-themed podcast "...Or He Said".

Finally, I also just added 2 features to the MIXmatch page that were previously only on the regular sound clips database page: you can now RATE MIXmatches! Also, they use the same download mechanism as the other clips. I'm going to start working on clips from Fun Run this week (wow, what a hilarious episode!), so look for another update post in a few days :) I also hope to add clips from S02 and S03 deleted scenes throughout this season while keeping up with the S04 deleted scenes NBC is posting throughout the week.

Until next time.... RIP Sprinkles.

It's hard to believe that WhatsTheScuttlebutt.com is 1 year old already! Well, I registered the domain name 1 year ago, and the site went live a few weeks later. In honor of the anniversary, here are some fun stats about the site and it's content:

550 People have rated sound clips since I added the ratings feature.

Some website notes:

All requests that I am able to complete are complete. Some deleted scene clip requests are still outstanding as I don't have the audio available yet.

I recently added a small thing to the request form to prevent me from getting excessive amounts of spam in my requests inbox and database. This spam takes a considerable amount of time to manage- time that I could be using to do requests! So I just added a simple random math problem so you can prove to me you are not a computer. It remains to be seen how effective this is, but hopefully it will help. Also there is a note on the requests page - I will still be taking requests, but I won't be able to handle them for a little while due to a lot of other things going on in my "real world" life. Things should be settling down right around the time of the S04 premier.

I hope you all continue to enjoy the site as we all look forward to the Season 3 DVD and the Season 4 premier!!

Health and humor to you all! Until next time... :)

To everyone who has submitted a request to me in the last month or so: I apologize for the delay. I am having some technical difficulties as the result of a software upgrade on one of my audio tools. Please bear with me as I try to work out the issue, or if I must, seek out an alternative piece of software. Thank you for your interest in my site and for your patience with this matter! :)

I also don't think I've mentioned the most recent "upgrade" to WTS.com - I have made all of the sound clips *louder* per a number of requests. This is the best I could do with the tools available to me without the audio sounding too distorted. I hope it helps those who were having trouble with the volumes of the old clips.

Hopefully I will be able to complete all requests in the near future! Note: to those who requested clips from relatively recent deleted scenes, I can't guarantee that I have all of the audio. NBC took some down before I was able to capture the audio from them, so I have to wait for the S03 DVD for a few of them. Of course, I will do whatever I can to complete every request as quickly as possible.

Ok everyone! I just finished adding all of my clips from Beach Games. I'm about to start on The Job, so if there are specific quotes from that episode that you'd like, get your requests in quickly! It is a lot easier for me to do them all at once.

Also, I have a request. Thanks to Sarah's suggestion that there be easy way to bring up all of the singing clips, I have decided to add a "tag" feature to the clips. I need your suggestions for what tags I should use. This is going to take a while to go through all 3000+ clips and tag them appropriately, but I think it will be a nice added feature! So far I obviously have "Singing" for the many songs, and "JAM" for all those great Jim & Pam moments. I will probably also make "Deleted Scene" and "Producer's Cut" tags as well instead of making them quote text keywords. What other tags would you all like to see? Is there a specific search you'd like to do that the tag feature would enable? As long as I don't get too much spam, I will leave this post open to comments indefinitely so you all can make your suggestions. You can also of course email me directly.

Thanks for your great suggestions, emails, and support! I look forward to hearing your tag suggestions in well - I mean as well. ;)
