This inaugural post is more about throat clearing and reference bookending than anything else. My desk doesn’t really even look like this anymore. What a difference 6 months makes! Might I suggest subscribing via RSS, with your favorite reader, since checking back regularly here will most likely result in disappointment. By using an RSS reader, I find it possible to keep up with a lot of more obscure, 10-posts-a-year type sites that would have fallen off my radar back in the days when I could click through a big stack of links every day. So yeah, RSS readers, yay.
