# Loading Blummy…

December 1, 2005

People have been complaining that it took more than one click to open blummy. The
problem is that it may take some time to transfer the blummy script source to your
computer (due to slow server, network, whatever). So after the first click, blummy
is loaded from `blummy.com`, when you click again (before blummy appears), you instantly
close blummy again, so nothing happens. Only after the third click blummy opens.

Now our user fuska had the great idea to display a small “loading blummy” text, 
so the user knows what’s going on.

 * [Feature] “Loading blummy…” informs the user about the current ongoings.

The downside of this update is that you need to replace your blummy bookmarklet (
as the loading text is displayed by the bookmarklet to do that instantaneously).
So go to [blummy.com](http://blummy.com/), log in, and drag blummy to your toolbar
again. That should do the trick.

Thanks, fuska!
