I made a few slight changes to the layout Wednesday night. If you noticed things moving around, rest assured you were not imagining things. I’ll be working on the site layout and features a lot the next few days. Please let me know any changes you want, like or hate. Also, the ”Synapses” are being worked on. Synapses will be very useful in the future and can be gained by activities on the site. More on that later. Thanks for your patience.

Apologies for the long downtime on Thursday. The site had tons of traffic come in from a recent article and the hosting couldn’t take the load. I’m researching hosting options to avoid this type of down time. Thank you for the patience.

I disabled a few of the features to the site to allow for the Reddit traffic increase. I’m guessing they will all be back up in less than 24 hours. Thanks for the patience.

We got hit by a wave of traffic from our great Reddit.com friends so the site is acting up a bit. I’m working on reducing some of the load. Thanks for the visits and patience!

I’ve changed the logo for the day to reflect our views regarding SOPA, PIPA and HR 3699 / RWA.

The wife and I debated whether to take the sites down, but we went with the banner change and supportive posts instead.

If any of our members believes we should pull the site down for the day to show more support, please let me know soon.

There are lot of good resources online regarding the protests and proposed changes. Find sources you trust and maybe a few you don’t and get informed.

Thank you!

I’ve changed the background color from grey to white for the majority of the page. I think it looks a little better. Please let me know if you have any problems with this.

I’m working on quite a few other small changes that should make the site a little less ugly (I won’t win any design awards here) and hopefully a lot more user friendly.

As usual, any and all suggestions are welcome.

I’m hoping that I can bring in some guest writers and bloggers for 2012. I’m not sure if anyone out there is interested in hosting their neuroscience views here. Send me a message if you are interested in getting your article, blog or paper posted on the site.
