A new year, a new logo!

It’s been some time coming, and it’s here! I wanted the Chat27 “brand” to reflect what it’s all about, namely “chat” and “South Africa” – the +27 representing SA’s dialling code after all.

After getting quite a few comments on the two logo options on our facebook page, this one seems to have been the most likeable. I’ve made a few changes since, and I hope you feel it’s for the better!

Now onto looking at the new web design and functionality to go with the new logo…

Local is lekker (and faster!)

If you can read this, it means the transfer was successful (and that you’re literate)! Chat 27 is now hosted on local servers thanks to the affordable local hosting packages by Gridhost*. This has been a dream of mine since I started Chat 27, so it’s a big deal, ok?

How does this affect you though? Here’s how:

  • Page and Java loads should be much faster and stable.
  • Local-only bandwidth can now be used to chat.
  • It paves the way for the Chat27 make-over.
  • It makes my life easier… happy days!
*Adbreak, I know! lol. I’m just a big fan of their products and service.
