Another missive on our ongoing work, this time to report on two landmarks in Learn Chemistry's development in the last week:

• Learn Chemistry saw its millionth user! We don't know the person's name, nor can we reward their numerical fortune, but we're proud nonetheless. We're ahead of our own targets for getting Learn Chemistry to more people in more places around the globe.​
• Learn Chemistry got an RSC new-brand polish. On Wednesday we released an update which you can see all over the site. The changes included:
  • A lovely new purple RSC-brand masthead, with updated Learn Chemistry image (we have lost our beloved 'splat'
  • An update to our Periodic Table. We've simplified the title to 'Periodic Table'.
  • A clean and consistent menu system
  • A fix to our online experimentation page to make the list of experimental resources really 'pop' with their cover images.

Let us know what you think, and how we might continue to improve the site. There are more changes coming this autumn and winter, including some fairly substantial updates to look forward to...
