We've made a lot of changes over the past month--including a new look and a new approach this monthly newsletter. I'm pretty excited about all this as much of it is stuff we've been talking about within Mountain Goat for a few months. You may have noticed that we changed the look of our blog. We now provide short teasers for recent posts on the main blog page, and we've tried to make it easier to find things you're interested in by improving the tags and categories. (We've got some work left to go through and reconsider the tags on each post.) We've also improved the ability to subscribe to the blog via RSS or email.
Another thing I'm excited about is that we've improved the articles on the site. The site has always had over 30 articles I've written for various magazines or journals, but they haven't been easy to find. Worse, you couldn't comment on articles like you could on blog posts. With the underlying technology change we made, that's fixed. You can now comment on the articles on the site. And, I hope you'll do so as it helps us engage in a dialogue about these topics.
To help highlight some of the neglected content on the site, I've listed one old article below that you may find interesting.
