Madonna: Single Summaries Update
01 JUNE 2002

Madonna: Single Summaries has been dormant since the end of 2001, but changes are taking place behind the scenes. Here are some important updates about upcoming changes.

MSS 4.0 Launching This Fall
A complete rehaul of the site is in progress, with a new, cleaner design, more in-depth coverage of each single, as well as new album pages, features and a greater wealth of information. A preview example of the new page design can be seen to the left. Overall the site will be much more attractive and more user-friendly. The new site will be up and running before the release of Madonna's single "Can't You See My Mind" from the upcoming James Bond film "Die Another Day."

New Email Address
Although all the links on this website still indicate the old email address, Madonna: Single Summaries now has a new email address. Please direct all future queries and comments to
gotomadonna@hotmail.com. Emails sent to the old address will likely be lost as it now has a stringent junk mail filter. This new address will be devoted solely to the site and hopefully will result in faster response time!

Now Accepting Questions for a New F.A.Q.
It only makes sense that a site specializing in information would have a section where visitors can ask questions they do not see answered elsewhere. The relaunch of Madonna: Single Summaries will include a new F.A.Q. (Frequently Asked Questions) page. Email any questions you have or you think may be of interest to others to this email address:
gotomadonna@hotmail.com.

Other Features?
I have been trying to think of ways to improve Madonna: Single Summaries not only in design but also in content. Your opinions have always been important to the site, as evidenced by the numerous fan-voted lists, countdowns, and special presentations. I am curious to know if you have any other ideas or suggestions for the site. Some ideas I am considering iclude:
- Chart Predictor - A weekly game where visitors can guess how Madonna will perform on the charts and see how they stack up against my own predictions.
- Newsletter - Receive updates before they're on the web.
- Forum - I attempted to launch a forum before the release of "Music" in 2000, however it attracted few visitors and was soon closed. Is this something you would be interested in or are there already more than enough Madonna forums online?
Please vote in the poll to the left on what you would actually use (for example, please don't check "forum" if you don't think you would actually post frequently), and also email me at
gotomadonna@hotmail.com with your thoughts on these ideas and any other suggestions for new features or improvements to old ones. Remember that this also depends on the amount of time I have, so if you would be interested in helping out with any of these features please let me know.

Problems With the Current Site
I am aware that there are a handful of errors on the current site, and most notably, none of the ranking polls are working. This is becuase the company that provided the free iReviewIt service discontinued most of their services and deleted all their accounts. I have been unable to find a similar service online. The dead links will remain until the site relaunches, and the ranking service will be discontinued altogether. Hopefully all other problems will be fixed with the MSS 4.0 relaunch.

Thank You!
Thanks to all the visitors who have made this site such a rewarding experience! July 6, 2002 will mark three years online and roughly 150,000 visitors. That's all for now, see you at the relaunch!
