I'm also a beta tester member, I just hope it's not too slow - it'll slow down my work here!

Beta Launch Announcement Dear Silicon Investor Member: On the off chance that you have spent the last couple months as an alien abductee or seeking inner peace at a Tibetan monastery and therefore missed the fact that we are planning to re-launch Silicon Investor, I am pleased to announce that we are rapidly approaching the finish line. In fact, I am extremely proud of the SI team at Go2Net as they have done – IMHO – an exceptional job on the new Silicon Investor site. Now, it is time to put the new site to the test – a beta test to be specific – and that's where you come in. You have been selected to participate in the beta launch of the new Silicon Investor, so we'd like your help. Here's what happens next… Sometime in the near future, we will add a link on the Silicon Investor Home page to the new SI Beta Site. You can click on that link, and with your SI User ID and Password, we'll give you access to the beta site. The beta site will be a fully functional (or at least mostly functional) version of the new Silicon Investor. Essentially, you'll be able to do all of the cool things you can do on the current SI, with a few new tricks that we think you'll like. What do we want from you? Basically, we want you to use the beta site as much as possible, and spend a little extra effort giving us some feedback. Of course, you can communicate with us for any reason at any time. For the beta test, we are especially interested in hearing from you: A – About bugs. If you click on something and it doesn't work right, or one of the new features is confusing, or something about the site is just – well – bugging you, then please let us know right away. There will be special instructions on the beta site introduction page telling you where to send your bug reports. B – About your overall impressions. Please tell us what you think of the new site. We didn't do this because we just felt like working really hard. We did it because we wanted to deliver an even better product to you. What should you expect? For starters, you'll find a dramatically different user interface, especially in terms of colors, headers and integration of certain features. It'll be different than what you're currently used to, but our primary objective was to make the site simple and intuitive to use. When you look at a page, if you're confused, then let us know because it means we didn't achieve our goal. We've also added a handful of new features, like the IQC.com charts (Yea!), the ability to turn off the original subject post, the ability to display multiple message on the page at one time (a member's only feature) and a few others. We'll provide more details on the beta site introduction page. Heads up – i.e. IMPORTANT! Finally, I wanted to tell you now, and we'll tell you again, that the beta site has not been optimized for performance. In fact, it will mostly likely be slow – probably very slow – because it'll be running in our beta environment, not our production environment. Don't worry, we'll speed it up when it goes into production – promise. It'll also break occasionally – perhaps frequently. You'll get ugly messages like GSP Error and Server Problems and GLOBAL MELTDOWN (OK, perhaps a little exaggeration on the last one). If you get these errors, please tell us where and when they happen, but chances are, they occurred because we were temporarily working on that particular section of the site. That's all for now. Keep your eyes peeled for the beta site link on the home page. Regards,

Ditto for me-Beta tester! Also hoping it isn't too slow!Just wanted to say hello!I've been a lurker for about a week since I came across this thread.It's great,and I really appreciate the work of all who contribute,and especially that of SSP.Am just starting to get a bit familiar here with following the lists and other mentioned companies.I will offer any potential co's I come across that may have a good chance to make us some $$.Here is one that I've been waiting on for a move upwards:TNP.U on tse.News to be out real soon.They are commencing drilling a well in Egypt asap,and a second immediately after.I hope it fits the criteria here,as their previous nr attest to the drilling to start.I do own shares from back at 50 cents,so some good news from them is welcome!!(ps:TNP.U is the result of a merger last nov/98 of GHP.U and PROFCO).I am not a spammer.However,if I can make a profit trading shares that are recommended here,then I want to be able to at least offer something in return!Good trading to all!
