Since Techie Talk was launched back in 2008, the site has grown up a lot. It has undergone a couple of re-designs during that time and has seen hundreds of thousands of visitors.
In the last few months the traffic to Techie Talk has been higher than ever, which is a great thing, but it bought with it problems of its own. The server just couldn't cope with demand, so visitors were seeing page loads slow to a crawl and sometimes the site would fail to load at all!
Clearly this was a bad place to be, we want you to be able to use Techie Talk quickly! However, I'm very hopeful that those issues have been solved now that we have moved to a new server and new hardware.
With any luck you should notice the site responds much faster now. This hasn't been cheap and I want to take this opportunity to thank all those of you who help to keep Techie Talk going by supporting our sponsored links. While on this subject, if you use and enjoy Techie Talk and you also use ad-blocking software. Would you please consider disabling it here? We rely solely on advertising revenue, and if you don't see the ads, we don't stand any chance of making any money. If we don't make money then the site becomes impossible to run.
It may not seem like a big deal to you, but it really is to us! We try hard to make sure the adverts are not intrusive so please give us a chance.
For now, thanks for visiting, I hope you enjoy reading Techie Talk and I'd love to get your feedback about anything we do here. Please comment below or join the forum!
