FR new software

[airplaneguy]

Does anyone know how old the Free Republic software is? Doesn't appear to have been updated in at least the 20 years that I've been here. It would be nice to have hyperlinks and better interfaces and a better search function. Not just text and photo files in line. It looks like Craigslist looked about 25 years ago. Anybody with software experience have any thoughts on this?

Thanks for being Civil. Somehow its the end of the world for many and I’m getting crucified for it. And no, I cant part with Ten K for website updates. Have a good night.

The way the Free Republic works is a thing of beauty. Those who would put their thumbs into updates will gum up the works. That thing of beauty will be replaced with a witch.

All what you want costs $$$ in system overhead, server usage charges and so forth. How much more are you willing to pay...assuming you pay at all.

Of those, I have a Model 10 from before it was called a Model 10;
Original Coke. I marched in the Coca-Cola 100th Anniversary Parade in Atlanta. Longest, hottest parade I've ever been in;
Several Ka-Bars:
And a 2003 Honda Element. Close enough.

Per FR tradition, you're a n00b if your signup date is even one day later than the person you're talking to. N00b.

Apparently AT&T still offers landlines. I think I’ll dust off my old WebTV.

"good try. been here 20 years. you?"

Hey, Newbie, I've been here 7 years longer than you...(April 1998)

[SuperLuminal]

Hmmm...
So, does (April 1998) come before (April 1999) on the newbie scale?

Mega Dittos. Don't change a thing. If it ain't broken, don't "fix" it.

[ma_che62]

More obsession with “innovation”…truly stupid. If something works, don’t fix it.

[real saxophonist]

Obviously I was talking to airplaneguy, just pinged you. Of course I wasn’t calling you a newbie.

No vote for modernization here, leave it be.

Okay, but what does BTTT do? To the top of what?

[GingisK]

What about having...

It is in the tools ZIP at the top of his page.

I think it works fine. Simple. Clean interface.
