Something to note, twitter is blocked by the government in China , and dlang.org home page can not be fully loaded now due to this twitface app. So IMHO it's not necessarily convenient at least to Chinese D'evelopers (well, it's D Developers). It's the Chinese government to blame, but I surely hope this problem can be dealt with. After all, we were able to load dlang.org home page before twitter is integrated! My suggestion is to put the twitter app's javascript to the end of the HTML so that the browser will render the main contents of the home page first and let people see them. That will solve Nick's slow loading problem too.
