It looks better. I'm just looking at it now. Looks like they added a video page. Not much in the way of new content, but it is an improvement, though the page doesn't fit my browser. I am using a 13-in. flat screen. They still haven't linked to us!!

I was looking at it for a few minutes and then it suddenly reverted to the old version:confused:

They still need to directly point or redirect ronpaul2008.org to the ronpaul2008.com site instead of hitting that 15 second redirect page up at the explore site.

Otherwise, yes the site is much better looking, and not to busy to be distracting.

maybe the difficulties y'all are having because yer pullin' up cached pages? just a thought...

I just noticed some slight changes to his MySpace profile, new pic, etc... New buttons for add friends..

For those still seeing the old site, it looks like the IP address changed. Many DNS caches, which aren't just on one's local machine so they can't be manually refreshed, seem to have the old IP address still. Here's the new one:

74.205.85.10 (http://74.205.85.10)

Links within the page won't work, though. You'll have to manually edit the address to add things like "issues/" or "issues/debt-and-taxes/" for example onto the IP address to get the secondary pages to work. Hopefully the DNS caches will get updated soon.

Hey guys, the website says the next Republican debate is the 6th. I thought it was on the 5th.

That's not good, I won't be here on the 5th. Is this a mistake? :confused:

I think that's a typo, everything I've heard says it's on the 5th

Page is nice, looks like it jumped from the late 90's to the present in terms of design.

I checked CNN, it is the 5th. Emailed ronpaul2008.com with the error, hope they can fix it soon.

awesome. i've been wondering when we might see an upgrade. it was pretty weak before. perfect timing, too, - ready for the post-debate rush.
