Random Button Broken?
« on: January 22, 2015, 11:03:53 AM »
I always get "Cheap Cell Phone Plans in Canada and Beyond" when I click the Random button today. This has happened before for me so I'm asking if this is a site issue or my own browser issue. Using Chrome on Windows 7.

It has never worked properly for me. In a given web browser it will randomly pop up one blog post but every time I click it again, I get that same blog post again.

I don't get the same one every time I click it but it usually only gives one new one per day. I had assumed it only changed the "random" once a day. So if I want to get more than one random, I have to go back into the archives and chose my own one at random.

It gives me a new one every time using Chrome (v39). I just tried clicking it 5 times and got a new one each time. It might depend which browser you're using.

Mine just gave me a random one, then the same one over and over.

I get the same as webguy.  Also using Chrome 39, and also from Minnesota :)

Just tried it again today using Firefox. I get the "good day to buy a bike" article over and over again.
