A small, but hopefully helpful update for some. I’ve added a link to the sidebar that says “Subscribe for Email Updates” for anyone who is interested in getting an email anytime I make a new post. I don’t post every day, so I know it can be a bummer to come and see a week [...]

I’m trying a new del.icio.us tool, an automatic daily post of links. For those of you who subscribe to my RSS feed you know that I’ve been doing this for awhile, but it’s only been posted to my feed, not to my site. Now everyone can share in the fun.
