“My morning paper arrives too late”

In the last few weeks ReadBeam.com has been swamped by new users. This led to ever growing conversion times. Just converting all the morning eDocs currently takes between four and seven hours.

To alleviate the problem I have temporarily suspended signups.

I will take measures to have ReadBeam again send morning papers in the morning - one will be switching to a freemium business model. Thats fancy for: some features of the site will be usable for free, others will cost money. This will allow me to add new servers and allocate more time on developing the service.

In the meantime I am sorry for the inconvenience.
