Various Site Updates

It has been nearly a week since I updated the look of the site. Initially there were quite a few people who objected (sometimes quite strenuously) to this. I know that in the ensuing time some have come around and have learned to appreciate the new design. To the rest of you, well, you’re clearly beyond hope!

Now we turn to other matters.

Gerard, a reader of this site who has quite an interesting job title, sent the following email: “Some of your readers might want to know that you can now use AvantGo to synchronize RSS feeds to PocketPC or Palm devices. I’ve got challies.com on my handheld now, and it’s a great way to read your site.” Who knew?

If you look to the top of the right column on any page in this site you’ll see another interesting way of reading the site: subscribing by email. Using this service you can enter your address and have a daily digest of the articles posted during that day sent to your email address. There is no advertising, no spam, etc.

I updated the forum template so it comes a little closer to imitating the look of the main site. I may edit it further as I have time.

Finally, I wish you all a good weekend. For those who read on Saturday and Sunday, I’ll have some book reviews for you over the weekend. For the rest, enjoy your weekend and we’ll see you on Monday.
