Sunday morning browsing experience.

Guess there's some issues going on this AM also? Was looking around different sites, not just sports. And this one was loading abour 4-5 times slower and then I almost couldn't scroll down the page. Finally, after having quite a bit of trouble navigating this site and no problem on others, I decided to post on site feedback and it locked up on me. Had to shut down the computer and reboot. Still acting up. Just letting you know, sorry. Hope everything gets figured out. Good luck.

Interesting, it has been blazing fast for me since the change. What browser are you using?

Re: Sunday morning browsing experience.

I'm finding this site much slower on a PC. I'm wondering if it's not that digitalsports basketball video of Iowa game highligts/etc. I told it not to load/play on page load, but I'm still getting vid. On my iPad I'm fine since that vid isn't supported on it.

This site is not for those w/out a robust computer (This site can put a decent hit on CPU) or if you have the 'low level' DSL connection.

No problems with this site for me either. It's been very fast and smooth since the change.

Re: Sunday morning browsing experience.

In the last 24 hours, I have accessed this site on my macbook pro, my imac desktop, ipad, and at radio station on a pc.

I have not encountered any problems and the site has never loaded faster than it is right now.

Having said all of this, I have not browsed the site using internet explorer. If you don't have to use IE because of work, I dont know why anyone is still using that clunky product.

Glad to hear it. I am guessing IE8 and most up to date?

It's amazing how many people are still using IE7 and IE6 that visit this site. About 16% of the site's users

I have IE8 installed. I just installed Firefox 4.0 Beta 10 to try it out. Seems good so far.

Re: Sunday morning browsing experience.

If I could choose what browser people used to access the site, it would be Firefox or Chrome. I use Chrome.

Re: Sunday morning browsing experience.

I'm using Firefox, and it's been slow for me this morning. Last night it was blazing fast. Been waiting a lot for the pages to load this morning.

I just switched to firefox and have been flying around...faster than even Chrome...and I am not hardwired, using my macbook. Then again, I have the fastest connection Qwest offers consumers
