Since the beginning of this year we have done the following:
- Server upgrade, increasing speed and massively reducing downtime
- login page is now secure SSL
- improved social sharing of libcom articles on twitter: try it out! Sharing a link shows an intro widget with image
- Improved social sharing of libcom articles on Facebook: they should be formatted better and use a more appropriate picture and description
