Hat's off to all that had a hand in creating this wonderful site for both the consumers and the Mortgage Professionals.  You have made a wonderful place for us all to communicate and keeping us up to date on what is going on in the industry!!!

Very impressive!  be sure to make this thread a sticky.

Sticky indeed. The site looks great, I'm still poking around myself and finding new things every day.

There is alot to the site and I truly appreciate all of the work you guy's have put into it.  The best part, this is THE place to be to avoid the doom and gloom and nsysayers out there!!!!!

Unless some guy from over there that likes Linda Ronstadt songs shows up.

Good work Glenn, Jay and Matt!

Nice job, thanks guys!!

Glenn, you have some serious talent bro, the site looks great and the content continues to get better everyday.  I'm going to start cutting out another hour of sleep time, just to get to everything you and Matt are providing us w/.  (but, not a little sleep as Matt gets though, thats not human)

Much Props Boys!

Really?  No one is LMAO or ROFL at this yet?

Antonio, we gotta talk bro.  Not sure how long you've been poking around, but I think I pretty much figured out where everything was by the time I was 13 or 14.

Thank you for all the compliments.  We've all worked hard to make it great and this is only the beginning of many great things to come. 

Thanks to all that worked hard to make this happen:

-Jay Drozd - the mad scientist, it never would have happened without him
-the MBS Crew (Matt "Visionary" Graham, Adam Quinones, Victor Burek)
-Jann, who's been writing for us since Day 1 (5+ years).
-all of the beta testers
-and all all of our readers

Much of the effort in designing the new platform went towards retrofitting to the old platform.  So from this point forward we get to concentrate on designing new features.  We have some great ideas and we look forward to hearing more from our users about what you'd like to see in the future.  So if you have any ideas please let us know.

Wow, that's hilarious. Going back and reading it, I'm actually surprised that you're the first one that brought it up!
