Hey hey -we're 'live'!! For those of you new to the site, and the regulars who've been redirected from the old 'cyberscriber' site - welcome. For the newbies, look around and have fun. I've not set up an FQA yet but will do so in response to the questions that come in - and there're bound to be a few!

For the old hands you'll see a few real changes. For a start the search function will make it much easier to find obscure words. In addition we've separated the the site into three sections 1. Ghastly Games - with the games and rules, 2. Dictionary of slang - 3000 terms of weirdness, 3. Seedy Songs and Rotten Rhymes - lyrics, poems etc.

As before we really need as many more as you can send us - and if you feel like just sending in some reminiscences of your schooldays, well they're welcome too.

As soon as she's able, kyte will be installing a forum option onsite where some of our joint interests can be discussed.

Oh the joys of editing!

Well to start with it means I get to laugh again at all the stuff that arrives. On the other hand I just uploaded 600 words to the Dictionaries and feel shattered. Serves me right for doing it in bulk I suppose.

Either way, the new site is almost ready to go 'live' but first I'm going to take a stab at adding as many of the words from the 'old' site as I can before I have a breakdown. As soon as it's ready (or as soon as I collapse) we'll redirect from cyberscriber to the new interface, but with the option of returning if that's what people wish. Having said that, from now on all new words will be added to the new site only so those who don;t look at it will miss them - which is sad.

The printed version seems to be selling well which is nice. I've had nothing but good responses from feedback which is even better!

So... I'm back to work. The faster the words are transferred, the faster I can start reading the rest of the new crop of words as they arrive.

Have fun!
