Thanks for the suggestion Andy, it's worth trying to see if that helps make better decisions.

Thanks again for putting together Link Drop each week. An old boss used to tell me "you can't give yourself a haircut". With that in mind, I'd like to suggest you consider putting the images of each site you "drop" under the heading, rather then above. Perhaps the image would help if it was big & bold (easy to decipher), but in this case it doesn't really help me determine which link I'd like to visit—in fact it makes it kind of frustrating only because it's the first thing I look at, I can't figure out what it is, and then I need to read the headline and description to determine if I'm interested. That's a lot of heavy lifting.

Thanks so much for the link love! Todd's Prototyping session was really great. I hope folks can get something out of the recap.

I just read the full Leibovitz story last night; it's bonkers, I recommend it. I had no idea about half of that stuff. Sad :\ hope she sorts it out.

Also I just read the Art Fag City post about Google Street View this morning, it is so.interesting.oh.my.god

Glad your computer is doing better!

What needs “redesigning” is code, not appearance. Seriously, can you learn six HTML “tags,” Michael?
