Last week we launched the newly redesigned usmagazine.com… Has a cool new look and it’s backend is much more structured which should make it easier to create new sections/features down the road as well as keep everything much “cleaner” code-wise. It is now built on a much better framework (IMHO) that uses MVC principals much better than the old site’s framework.

I am pushing to add user registration on the site next… as soon as all the wrinkles have been ironed out of this first iteration of the new site, hopefully.

I feel like there are still some performance issues but no one but me seems to be noticing anything. I’m definitely going to look into it more when I get back from a long deserved (IMHO) vacation…
