Merchant Circle lens has been updated

johndilbeck — Sun, 27 Jun 2010 12:11:39 GMT

This morning, I updated the Merchant Circle lens and did some general maintenance while I was looking at it.I removed a lot of spam. Some people just don't know how to play nice in others' sandboxes. I also changed all submissions to moderated, so it will take a bit longer for your submissions to show up -- usually two or three days -- but it should stop the spam.If you have a small business and you haven't listed it on Merchant Circle, why not?All the best,JD
