In the very near future, SB Nation 2.0 will transition to SB Nation United. Those of you who were with us years ago remember the switch from SB Nation 1.0 (also known as Scoop) to 2.0. It was a big change, it was a jolt and … it was an incredible improvement on every level. The shift to United will be the same: it will be a big change, it will be a jolt and it will be an incredible improvement on every level.

You'll see it soon. (For a preview, there's a screenshot of what NetsDaily, our exquisitely run brother site in Brooklyn, looks like in United below the jump.) Here are the key points to know as we approach the switch.

* SB Nation United is going to make our sites load faster and run better meaning you can get to the content you want faster.

* SB Nation United is going to make sure that you're seeing the best and brightest content up front with our flexible layout, modern design and reduction of clutter.

* SB Nation United is going to make the experience on our sites run seamlessly from every platform, whether mobile, tablet or computer. No matter where you are, the experience will not change.

* SB Nation United will not take away or change any of the community elements you love like FanPosts and FanShots and GameThreads.

Here's what United looks like from a practical standpoint, again, using NetsDaily. Click to embiggen.

GET EXCITED, FOLKS.
