Thanks to getting written up on Wired last week, our site has had a pretty massive upswing in traffic lately. To all the new people checking us out for the first time: Welcome! We do hope you’ll stick around.

If you'll forgive me for being self-referential, there’s a lot of stuff to be proud of here on the site (And a bit here and there that we’d probably take back if we could), but it’s the nature of bloggery that the medium simply devours content. Any mention of a brilliant new book, or dissertation on some new philosophical outlook invariably gets buried and lost among the TV reviews and discussions about whether or not the butt-shots in Japanese cartoons are gratuitous nor necessary for the advancement of the plot. (Hint: They’re always gratuitous)
