Hey Everyone,
I just wanted to make a quick post to let everyone know that after ~2 months in development we are just a few weeks away from the launch of the new WSO.
The layout will be much cleaner, and we will use a lot of the suggestions many of you made to me this past summer when I was traveling in SE Asia. The new theme should also greatly improve speed and add some new cool community features as well.
We will also soon start publishing a new video blog from Harvard Business TV that will provide market recaps on Monday-Wednesday and Friday.
Stay Tuned, Patrick
So what do you do? -I work for an investment banking firm. Oh okay; you are like my brother, he works for Edward Jones. -No, a college degree is required in my profession
Keep up the good work.
Very nice.
Looking forward to the new site as well.
Will the new site have faster load time as I am on a T3 hard line and the load speed is still terrible.
it should be much faster because we are cleaning it up / making it much simpler with less graphical buttons, etc. any slower pageloads are not acceptable.
Are you using Firefox? IR? safari? just curious...thanks.
I'm using chrome so that might be a problem but I still notice a lag when using IE.
IE6 or IE7?
Thanks, Patrick
IE7
that's frustrating. I apologize. I've used the site on IE7 from several locations and it seems to work fine for me so that is odd.
I am hoping the new theme will solve a lot of these speed issues though. Pageload speed is high on the To Do list once the new theme is launched.
The new theme will be fixed width and should be much easier to navigate.
Thanks, Patrick
Faster than expected, we expect to be able to launch the new theme as early as tonight -- more likely within 48 hours! ...my web developer has been busting his ass.
It won't be perfect when it is launched and I am sure we will get complaints, but rest assured we will work hard to keep improving it for all of you primates out there. I am really hoping it improves speed.
I think most of you will be pleased with the change - but if not let us hear about it in here.
Thanks, Patrick
Much cleaner and more professional. My only complaint is everything on the right seems to take up too much space when perusing the different web topics. I think it would look much better if all the information only on the main page.
