We’ve had this test site up and running for about two months now. And wow, we’ve really discovered a lot. We’ve learned about site functionality, as well as what you like, and what you don’t like. It’s definitely been time well spent.

So what’s the plan for future sites?

On October 1, we’re going to shut down this test. Everyone will be redirected back to the classic myembarq.com. And for a couple of weeks, it will be business as usual. Everything will look and feel the same as it always has.

However, on October 17, you will notice some changes. Because of the merger between EMBARQ and CenturyTel, we have a new name: CenturyLink. You’ll begin to see our new name showing up in advertising, on billing, and on the web portal. Don’t worry, the functionality will not change. 

In the meantime, we’re continuting to develop and test all kinds of new features that we’re pretty sure will knock your socks off! We’ll be rolling them out in 2010, so stick around for the fun.

Thanks to everyone who commented on this blog! I loved getting your feedback, and it’s helped us tremendously.

Enjoy the rest of 2009, and I’ll be in touch!
