Motime v.3 launches on Sunday Morning

We'll be offline for 4-5 hours —

It's time for an upgrade!
From 10:30 a.m. to about 3:00 p.m. (Central European Time) Mo'time will be unavailable while we upgrade the system, optimize the databases, move stuff around on the servers and then take it around for a test drive.

This is a rough estimate; it might take just a little longer. To see what time this corresponds to in your time zone, go to worldtimeserver.com.

Major upgrades can cause a bit of pain here and there, but we are confident that we've got most of the bugs worked out and that we've built a more useful, usable and stable Mo'time for you. This is a work in progress! I look forward to hearing your reactions in the days and weeks to come.

Tech note: I'll mention this again after we're back online, but the first thing you will need to do after coming to the home page after the upgrade will be to press the Control key and then F5 to refresh the graphics on Windows. On other systems, you need to empty your cache and then click the Refresh button of your browser.

Here's a partial list of what you can expect:
• More centralized blog and account controls
• New templates, tags and features
• Improved community tools
• Upgraded instant messaging, including voice calls...We'll be offline for 4-5 hours —

We're preparing the ground for this, but it will probably be part of a reasonably priced paid service to come in the next couple of months. There is some discussion of this issue on this post on the template blog.

Wow, I'm excited for the new Motime. Sounds like it's going to be a huge change.

Very exciting! I'm truly thrilled. BTW, my husband is considering starting a news blog of his own that may potentially draw sponsors. Would this be permitted on motime?
