Blog

We're working (but rather too slowly) at restructuring the website so that News and Blog entries are central to its look and its functionality. We'll do away with the distinction between the two and try to provide at least daily updates of what we're doing and what we're thinking about. In the meantime, even though the pages accessed from the column to the right are buried deep in the site, we'll begin to contribute the kinds of pieces, both short and long, that we're intending to feature on the front page. 

Any thoughts and comments would be very welcome; e-mail us here.
