Big updates are coming - get ready

September 6, 2007 – 11:56 pm by Jared Stenquist

For the past few months I’ve kept pretty hush on where CampusLIVE is going. I’m happy to let everyone know that we’ve been working full time to make CL the best homepage for you. We’ve listened to hundreds of feedback messages and substantially changed the site - for the better. You can expect to see the new site in the next few days.

Logo: I know, you’re quick and already realized the new logo up top. Thanks for voting!

Customization: Many of you wanted to be able to change your news, searches or links. Now you’ll be able to change anything - news feeds, weather, searches and more - and take it with you. Log in on any computer and your completely custom CampusLIVE will be there. Pretty sweet right?

Restaurant Upgrade: You wanted more and we’re giving you tons! Now CampusLIVE will include ALL dining establishments in the area - not just delivery. Now you can browse places to Dine-In or take-out. In addition to this we have added restaurant reviews and ratings. Now everyone can share their opinions. Have a favorite place to order from? You can add them to your favorites and see which are open, right from your homepage. Restaurants will also be adding their own coupons regularly - so you can click, print and save with exclusive CampusLIVE coupons.

Speed and Reliability: We’ve moved CampusLIVE to brand-new, dedicated servers that are lightning fast compared to our old setup. We’ve also managed to reduce the page size by more than 60%, making the new site even more blazing fast.

And Much More: We still want to keep a few surprises up our sleeves, so check back in the next week for a totally new CampusLIVE!

Thanks to all our users, we appreciate you spreading the word and giving us such great feedback!
