Spintricity being updated soon…

Well, Internet Explorer 8, Microsoft’s latest version of its browser, which many people still use, has come and… well, if you are like us, you had no choice but to upgrade from 7. They kind of folded it in with a security update.

We had high hopes for version 8. Kind of put off putting a lot of work into things until this release came out. But instead, 8 is lagging further and further behind the competition in terms of raw speed.

So, tell… ya… what… we’re… going… to… do.

We’ve rewritten a large part of Spintricity (actually magazines.me) and Internet Explorer (i.e. IE), in the ‘lab’, now works on Spintricity about 10 times faster than it used to. About as fast as FireFox used to. Maybe faster.

Of course, FireFox is now about 3 times faster, and Google Chrome, well, I think we’ve achieved warp speed captain.

This should be up on the website next week sometime, we are hoping.
