Talking Non-North American Users, Please Read

We have made some changes to the site to hopefully help in making the site faster for you if your not located in the USA/Canada/Mexico regions.

Let me know if you notice any difference with the site over previous usage. Of course, you may not notice anything and thats fine too. Let me know either way.

Hi ScottW,

I think there has been a slight speed increases for me, but it is hard to be sure (i.e. it's not a night-and-day sort of difference)!

Okay, just curious. Nothing much was done, but all graphics and images are being distributed to nodes around the globe, as to decrease load time for those around the globe. But the text and content still comes from USA. So, was curious if it made any difference to a regular website. I knew it would be good for movies and large files, but just regular web graphics, wasn't sure.

Would be interested in additional feedback from anyone.

Speed is nice. I'm not sure whether it was any/much slower before, though.
