As part of years of cross collaborative efforts, spreading good will and most recently awards won, surflook has received lifetime free software, upgrades, support, licensing, all free to surflook.com reducing operating costs whilst helping provide surfing service to users.
Massive improvements will happen in the future. At some point the site will be more php driven, sql database driven and be much more than can be mentioned here. Legacy pages for the current css html driven pages for cities and communities worldwide will still be available and indexed by search engine robots and available for those people in communities who have bookmarked a community page for the report and area specific weather conditions etc.
Additionally bandwidth allowances, disk space usage and page hosts will be increased.
Surflook.com will continue to improve, grow and be a stable place for surfers to return year after year day after day.
