The old IHG websites
I very much enjoyed using the old IHG websites (e.g. seen here http://web.archive.org/web/201001051...elsgroup.com/#)
Unlike the new sites, the pages were quick to load, tabbed browsing was supported; and they were not cumbersome and riddled with (as many!) errors.
Is there any way to access live versions of the old websites? For example, through a certain browser, mobile device or particular user agent ID?
I remember there was a long overlap period during which the old ihg.com site overlapped with the new holidayinn.com site. Although I do generally embrace change, in this case I would hate to think that all the old sites have been consigned to the "recycle bin"!

I also liked the former functionalities we have not now:
- Full history
- No need to click on the date of history to see the name of the hotel
- Easy way to all see the pics of hotel
- Automatic check-out day (day +1) when entering the check-in day (and change accordingly when entering another date)
- Expiration date of Royal Ambassador status
