Although only a couple of minutes browsing would be enough to demonstrate that there are a number of new features on the site, I decided to write a post to enumerate some of the new features.
- A “People” Section (located in the bar at the top of the page)
- Inline media player: Click on a link in one of the podcast posts, it will turn into a Flash media playe (go, try it).
- New rolling archives(and several other widgets courtesy of the new release of K2)
- Numerous structural updates courtesy of WordPress 2.3
- On air section and now playing (while we’re on the air)
- New AJAXy contact form via cForms ][. It actually delivers to our mailboxes now.
- New podcast hosting server, seamlessly aloows 2-3 times as many simultaneous downloads.
Unlike some previous releases, this has been fairly throughly tested on our testing site before this release, however, if you do experience some weird behavior:
- Try clearing your browser’s cache
- If that fails, send a help messgae from our new contact form
Finally, bandwidth has been upped, so those of you experiencing problems with downloads being really slow and failing should see a marked increase. If you do continue to have troubles, please send a message.

Fixed:
- Error where non-Administrators could not edit their profile page
- Safari/OS X media player issue
A random thought on the popularity of the website:
We have had an almost exponential increase in comment spam in the past month. Fortunately the spam filter has been working at full tilt, but it is still somewhat annoying.
