Whack this site please.

We just updated http://worldnewstrust.com to version 3.0 and released it to an unsuspecting public. Still needs work, but a little pressure on it will never hurt. We don't need the hits for adverts, we aren't running any yet. Damn things are a pain, anyway. We do need a little tender loving stress on the server, so give it a good larroping and let us know if it craps the bed.

3. You could...

But not until tomorrow, and too many requests from one IP could trip our security features. We got that. ;-)

4. Small issue ...

The font size +/- "buttons" on the top right don't really do much. From the Home page, it only changes the font size of the news cloud, menu bar, and the goggle ads. Not that this means a lot, I don't guess. I only tested it 'cause I was in testing mode. If I want to change font size, I use Firefox's internal method.

This was on Firefox 3.5.1/Windows XPPro

In IE 7, had some long rendering delays of the main content while waiting on googleads to make up its mind whether it wanted to load or just sit there with a blank look.

I'm at work, and our network is acting all goofy today. So that's about all I can tell.

5. It loaded a little bit slowly for me just now

Probably 6-8 seconds, and wasn't something that would have me clicking out of it because it was too slow. The second time I opened it, the page loaded pretty quickly (and I know that was probably caused by the page being cached on my computer). Other than that, it looks good.
