Searchles Infrastructure Upgrade: Site Running Harder, Faster, Stronger than the Average Bear

First and foremost, we'd like to take a moment to apologize for the technical difficulties some of you had been experiencing with the site these past three weeks or so. We know it can be quite frustrating (at least it was to us) which is why we've taken steps this past week to upgrade our infrastructure in order to avoid these problems in the future. Servers, load balancer, bandwidth, anothertechnicalterm, you name it, BAM!...we kicked it up a notch. Better yet, the upgrades went quite smoothly! We toasted - not to our successes, but to the new-found ease and speed of your Searchles experience. The improved infrastructure will not only improve all users' day-to-day site activity, but will also greatly benefit ease of use for international users...or users shacking up at the newly-warmed North Pole. I wonder when all this global warming business will start to bring Santa Claus into the fray.

We're not necessarily stopping there, oh no. We're making site upgrades our number one priority and are going to be working on it until we're delivering you the fastest, smoothest-running site we possibly can. So put that in your pipe and smoke it. Thanks for all your patience and feedback - we appreciate the questions/comments/hopesanddreams you've been sending our way!
