The new home page is up. There weren’t really any issues with it except that the banner rotation function I wrote was taking longer to download than I expected. I fixed it, though.
Last night I downloaded and installed Kubuntu 8.04. I hated it so I took it back off. Then I installed Fedora and it was about the same thing. Thus, I am back to OpenSUSE.
Everybody is talking about going out tonight to celebrate this new page. I should also mention we changed headers site-wide since we got rid of the creepy “chat with us NOW” boxes. Due to the inefficient structure of our site, it took forever and hundreds of files had to be changed.
So, go to www.rackspace.com. Don’t click anything, just sit there and mouse over a link. After a while, you’ll get a js popup from LivePerson asking you if you want to chat. God, these things are annoying but, yep, you guessed it…that’s the system we are implementing in the near future. I campaigned against it but was overruled.
