He's from Montreal. They're all about being cool and cynical and kinda Frenchy, then something happens that they like - or don't like - and suddenly they're burning cop cars and rioting.

Believe me Genghis, it's not easy sharing a country with those people.

In reply to Thanks! Wow that was fast.

I reserved the whole day for knocking dag into shape, and your request was a good one. I still need to figure out how to create better user profile pages. And maybe redesign the site. Otherwise, I think that its getting into good shape.

PS If I had Celine Dion tickets, I would burn them.

Thanks! Wow that was fast.

Can I have a pony too? and/or Celine Dion tickets. Whatever works for you, I'm easy...

Adding the blog-post title was also an excellent idea, Genghis, what with the increased volume and all. Isn't this fun?

Welcome, Obey. Per your suggestion, I beefed up the recent comments. You can get the full comments if you click "More" at the end of the comments block.

I'll think about classifying reader blogs by topic. Frankly, unless people start posting on topics other than politics, I may scrap the topics altogether.

hi ghengis. Just floating in from tpm. registered and published my first reader blog in no time. I like how you've set things up.

as for the suggestion box stuff, I really enjoyed the dashboard function at tpm, not to track anyone in particular but to get a feel for where the action was, who was around at the time, and what the topic of discussion was. Your 'recent comments' sidebar does that to some extent, but it would imo be nice to have a separate page with a longer list of recent comments, who is writing, and a longer extract (2 lines - à la tpm).

Maybe you could also classify the readerblog archives by topic.

But, hey, it's great the way it is. And thanks for taking us stranded tpm'ers in.

Oh. Well, being newer here,

Oh. Well, being newer here, I just noticed it this morning.

Hope it doesn't get too overblown with the influx of new people.
