The slowness is not terribly bad, but it is noticeable sometimes. And sometimes the site simply doesn't respond at all. And that's okay, because there are at least two Perl groups on Facebook, so if I have a burning question, I just post it there. And my observation is that it gets answered slightly faster (sometimes). Plus, I don't know who it is, but somebody always gives me a down vote on PerlMonks regardless of what I write. I haven't observed this on Facebook yet. People are less rude there. Maybe it's because we can see each other's profile and face, and over here it's like up to our imaginations. For example, when I see "Anonymous Monk," I imagine a hacker figure in a dark hoodie with smoke all around. And it's slightly an adversary type figure. Then there's eyepopslikeamosquito which I imagine as a mosquito pest control guy. Sorry. LOL The word "choroba" reminds me of an unbeatable chess program, I don't know why. Then there's LanX which reminds me of the Cox cable guy who hooks up the internet at people's houses. When I signed up here, I didn't know what kind of username to pick, so I just picked a silly name. I could have picked "MasterProgrammer3000" or "AIPerlHacker5000" something similar, but I didn't want to look threatening. Haha Anyway, this is a great site. But if I had to add some new features, I would allow people to upload a small picture as an avatar which would appear next to each post. Maybe add a bio like LinkedIn, so when you click on someone's profile, you could see their work experience, education, etc. It would be nice. LinkedIn has become a very trashy advertising site. When I had a LinkedIn account, LinkedIn would send out invitation emails to all my friends without my knowledge or approval, and once I closed my account, I started getting unsoliticed invitation emails from others without their knowledge or approval. It was LinkedIn trying to get me to come back. Horrible. I hate that website. Yuck
