What's New on Old School Apps Vol 11

A bit late today, but I guess it's better than no update at all, right? This week we experienced some extreme server difficulty and almost caused me to run out and sign up for a dedicated host. Fortunately after doing some analzying, I found ways to improve the site's performance without spending a dime. The Online (Java) Arcade now has about 80 games in it and will continue to grow with each week, if there is an unlisted game you'd like, you'll be able to post about it on our upcoming message boards. They are just about done and should be live by the first week in September.

Besides for adding new features, we've also been working hard to upgrade the quality of content on our downloadable game titles (no, we haven't completely forgotten about that section of our site). We'll be trying to bang out one category a week. We're adding brief descriptions to all games which haven't been fully reviewed, which by the way anyone is more than welcome to do! Sign up and submit your game reviews to receive credit as well as a backlink to your personal page, blog, or social networking page (your choice!)

That just about wraps it up for this week, not much progress was made, but we'll keep at it, week after week!
