But Internet Brands, Inc. own's the FT site now. From comments on FT seems IB have control of add's (and more ?). Never got a chance on Monday to ask Randy the set up with IB works.

As I understand it:


IB owns Flyertalk, and decides certain things - including who they spam, and what ads they display.

However, Randy is like a Creative Director/Consultant type role, and keeps the place running the way he wants it for the moment. I believe that contract is up in about 3 years or so (but can't check as FT is down!).

I havn't really noticed big changes, except for the spam I received once, and the comments I hear from users who are seeing the popup advertising (I'm subscribed, so don't see it).

Still the same here now. First discovered it about 3:30pm, I was worried work may have blocked it on me. :oops:

I was replying to a post about 1:30 when it failed to preview.
 
It's fine for me too, right now.

I find it interesting that the service varies so much. It is still working fine here. As fast or faster than normal :!: :cool:
