Thanks, all. The thing I’m most likely to tweak would be the masthead, Chris; it could use some more images, and the ones I have could stand to be resized to handle the much higher pixel widths of today. Not being a designer or a typographer, though, I don’t have a lot of appetite for either redesigning or going all ransom-note on y’all. I’d be more likely to sink effort into improving the comment system with a better form and a “notify me of followup comments via email” feature than anything else!

Good news, Eric. Just one tiny suggestion, hope you do not mind. Any chance of a new look to the blog? Perhaps a slight tweak? Some web fonts maybe?

Keep up the good work!

Great news!

I thought it was interesting that you correlate the impact of Twitter and Facebook on the very rare currency of “attention.” I’m coming to the same realization in life…so many things these days drain the limited attention you have to give. Little bits disappear here and there and, before you know it, meaningfully significant items in your life are withering away.

Something for me to ponder…what’s not getting enough of my attention these days??

Congrats on your arrival at comma-dom! You’ve always struck me as someone who, while you don’t often “speak” here, when you do, it is most often a reward to be a listener. Here’s to your continued occasional “speaking” and my continued listening. I began listening closely a while back and attended the first AEA event in Philly. And I had a pleasure of your critiquing some of my code for a school site that I had developed. And you caught what you called a common error in my nested list html. I am forever grateful.

Hip hip hurray! Not that I don’t enjoy interacting with you in other online venues, I’m truly excited to see this. You’ve always been a good pen pal. Looking forward to continuing that tradition in the blogosphere.
