| 640682 | 2008-02-15 21:40:00 | We've claimed many things for pcworld.co.nz, but Lord knows we could never call it quick. Now web designer Cindy Park and our IT team have reworked the site so editorial loads ahead of ads. It was a tricky task that ate up a lot of last week, with the rejigged arrangement going live on Friday. Enjoy the fruits of their labour. I certainly am. As well as being Editor, I'm a reader of the site's forums and other content. And as punter I say: Great effort, guys. PC World and Press F1 are now much, much snappier to load. |

Thats good, however you may want to test the pcworld main website in different browsers, because it has a formating problem in Opera . |

| 640687 | 2008-02-16 01:15:00 | Thanks for pointing that out, Trev. Things will still be tweaked over the next few days. Most around our office are confirmed Firefox junkies, so it's good to get IE feedback. Sorry robbyp, but fewer than 1% of visitors to our site use Opera, so it's just not on our optimisation radar. |

| 640688 | 2008-02-16 01:31:00 | It does not seem any faster to me, slower if anything. It was working just fine when the problem with the ads was fixed. |

| 640689 | 2008-02-16 02:02:00 | I went to access PressF1 on a friends computer yesterday and it took SO long to load. I'm with Safari, if anything this site has slowed down like anything. | beeswax34 (63) | ||
| 640690 | 2008-02-16 02:53:00 | Safari, I'm not sure what's causing your problem. I'm getting much better performance from three different PCs in three locations. In terms of the way we "fixed" the ads during January's serving glitches - our owners did not regard turning them off as a long term solution. |
