TwoRags.com just changed servers and new design
by lakong on 11/05/07
We're happy to report that we changed ISP's this past weekend and are now on our own dedicated equipment. Up until now, we have been co-located on a server with other websites. The server was in Canada so we had two issues that were causing speed/response-time problems. First, when other websites experienced high volume our speed was affected. Second, because the server was located in another country, there were basic internet connection issues from time to time.We believe that the new ISP and the new dedicated equipment should greatly help to solve these issues and result in a faster performing site. Please let us know if you are seeing our pages load quicker. If you are still experiencing any speed issues, do not hesitate to drop me an email or post a comment to this blog entry. I'm at scot@tworags.com.
On another topic, we're in the process of redesigning the site. This should take another month or so to be implemented. The new look will give us a friendlier/less corporate look. It will also better highlight our focus on blogging, trip reports and room listings/reviews. If any of you are interested in seeing some of the new layouts and designs, we would be happy to share them with you and hear your opinions. In the near future, I'll probably post some JPG's of the new interface and ask for comments.

Swami54, this is in our plans. More specifically, we are going to use vbulletin which is the premiere discussion board software around. They have a nice PM feature and we will integrate it in the site. Thanks for the suggestion. Keep them coming!- S
