Today the site loads very slow, and as I was about to blame the network when I saw this:

It seems that Nuffnang may be currently experiencing some difficulties. Since the ad block loads inline, the whole site waits for it. Oh by the way visitors from outside of Malaysia & Singapore will not see this [...]
