New names

As I said yesterday, out with the old handle, in with the new. I figure rather than make a separate diary FanPost about it, we can just put any changes in here.

You may have formerly known me as adamb, but I decided to use my normal online handle here as well, so I'm ravenfly now. The name actually comes from a song that a friend of mine wrote, and I liked the sound of it, so it's my online handle.

Wow, that's probably really boring to everyone but me. Whateva.

Anyone else switching their handle?

Still can't edit comments, eh?

Was supposed to be a strikethrough tag across "diary" but bleh, it's early.

So it seems okay for me

Did it fail for your, ravenfly? What browser are you using? Or maybe you just meant that it's too early in the day to post properly :) No edit - we're encouraging people to check in preview before they post.

clarification

Ah sorry, I wasn't clear. Yeah, I meant that it was too early and I just messed up the formatting on my own. Your tech works fine ;)

As for the editing comments bit, that's a philosophical discussion that I'll avoid. Personally I'm more used to forum posting rather than comment trees, so it always throws me. No big deal.

Also, great job on the revamp. I've already noticed a dozen or so things that I love about this vs. the old style, and I'm sure there will be more coming as I learn my way around the new site! (Now just let me move things around on the page a la iGoogle and we'll be good to go =P )

on topic

On the topic that Jesse originally brought up, heh...

Personally I RSS all of the local newspaper blogs. I know you have the paper frontpages linked, but Joe, LaVelle, and Phil/Kelsie post all sorts of wonderful things in their blogs that don't make it to or are delayed in the paper itself -- plus a lot more personal/gut-reaction stuff that I find really interesting. I highly recommend them for regular reading.

It's a little busy on the homepage

But I suppose my eyes will get used to it in time.

Blog

Jesse- Should you want to add my new City Pages Twins Blog to your rollcall- That would be most appreciated. I'm at http://blogs.citypages.com/sports/mlb/

I've really enjoyed your site- keep up the fine work. And, should you have had opportunity to look over the Card Article, I hope you've enjoyed the piece. Be Well- Judd.

What happened to the links to the other SB sites?

I like that. But I do like the widescreen site option.

Links

to the other SB Nation sites are now at the bottom of the page. Scroll all the way down and you'll see a menu there.

You had me for a second...I thought that would be a pretty big miss!
