New Site Coming Soon

[AB Editor]

Good morning,

We're pretty much done with developing the new website, and we hope to arrange things to go live early next week. Monday ideally.

The new site will work across all your devices, be easier to read, and hopefully run a little smoother.

Although, I expect the first hour on the new site to be very confusing and a little rocky, but I think we can all work together to work it out between us.

For those of you who have seen the beta site, you're going to feel very, very useful suddenly as those who haven't, and new users, learn their way around the site. I hope you don't mind helping out your fellow answerbankers!

I'll update you with our plans one the techies have come out of their team huddle this afternoon.

Cheers Ed

[AB Editor]

We can start a "I don't like change" thread when the new site is live.

[pastafreak]

Will there be protest marches...?
;-)

[whiskeryron]

Are we allowed to parade with protest banners ? Who's going to look after the children?

[AB Editor]

Don't worry, we'll look after the banners for you.

I've been on the New Site a few times, I like it.

[pixie374]

It is much clearer and easier- especially on mobile devices. I prefer it already.

[whiskeryron]

How come a few ABers have already been on & tried the site when this is the first some of us have heard about it ?

[AB Editor]

Hi WR, are you joking? Here's the discussions over the last year...

It's likely I also sent you an email to have a go at the beta site a couple of weeks ago.

So, I am surprised that you haven't heard about it until now!

Ready frEDdy.

[anneasquith]

I hate change, but we must have a look, if we don't like it ED can we appeal to the high courts ?;-)

[AB Editor]

Hi Trt, I've just resent the message. Please go have a look!

[ladybirder]

I don't like change and was happy with this site as it is but I thought it was OK. Ish.

[ubasses]

I didn't like it.

[dannyk13]

Nor me. Old dogs and new tricks comes to mind.

[AB Editor]

We've found those who had a negative response, have been similar to you Ladybirder - that's to say, it's not all that negative.

Overwhelmingly the response has been positive.
