Re: I'm dedicating most code changes/improvements to ..
Today I've been hitting up the following urls ..
»/speedtest
now shows your last result right under the server status if there is one to find.
Also, speed results page now includes plea for anonymous users to review their ISP. Maybe it is working, we're getting a lot more ISP reviews today than yesterday.
»/badrouters
fixed the page up, was including too many days and taking too long to construct
»/tools
Fixed up the layout to be more logical, to put the most frequently used tests at the top.
»Tools FAQ
minor format change to make FAQ header look cleaner
Also the link to 'review your ISP' is nicer now, it shows direct links to the most commonly reviewed ISPs instead of asking the user to go off and use site search to find the ISP. I really want to fix up the "unassociated review" system, the current one just isn't working well! |

| Why are the caches so slow anyway? I make changes to my posting tag and it takes hours and hours to change, like about 3. I also see compaints about avatar changes, too. Is there something inherently slow in the design that keeps these changes from being made any sooner? Just curious, I know it's not the biggest thing on your plate.

Brooklyn, NY | there isn't any cache invalidation done when people change their profile, thats all the issue is. Some of the avatar (gif) caches are beyond our control though. |

How about filling the empty space (here »/tools) with the following links to make it easier for new users to find help:
»Tools FAQ
»Broadband Tweaks
»Site Tools

FastEddie's idea is a good one. Another useful link for a prominent place on the tools page is a link to »Tools FAQ »Tweak Test - Speed Test Problems .
Maybe "If Test Results Don't Display".
