I guess many of you have experienced Update Error message recently.

This message is displayed when YoWindow is unable to receive the weather from our special server computer.
We have this error so frequently these days because there are so many users of YoWin, and they want the weather so much that our server cannot handle.

YoWindow for desktop runs at least on 40,000 computers now.
I like this number and I'm a little afraid of it.

I'm taking the necessary steps to let you enjoy the weather out YoWindow as painless as possible.
Today I have written a new algorithm for weather auto-updating.
I hope it will take care of the nasty "Update Error" problem.

The changes I have made may bring serious errors along.
Because of this I'm asking you to play with the latest RC build and pay special attention to the weather auto-update.
If you notice any problems you know what to do :)

Just want you to know a little bit of our interlnal news.
Probably we will have one more programmer on the team.
That means more features in YoWindow are coming soon.

Thank you for support guys!
