I can’t believe I almost forgot it!

De-lurking Week is something I’ve been looking forward to all year! Originally started by Sheryl at Papernapkin, I first encountered the idea on Veerle’s blog and loved it. “Lurkers” refer to people who read blogs but don’t comment in them. Whenever I look in my stats I see people visiting from all over the world, and I’m always curious as to who you people are, what brings you here, and what you think of the site. Whether you’re a n00b or a long-time visitor, De-lurking Week is is your chance to throw caution to the wind and leave a comment letting me know who you are, what you do and where you are from. It’s also the perfect opportunity to give suggestions for future postings. If there’s a topic you’d like to see me tackle, let me know!

So don’t be shy; leave a reply!

(Wow, did I really just say that? Well, I guess it’s better than “Call now! Operators are standing by!”)

It’s been a long, hard road, but I’m very proud to present AWG 2.0. Not only is there a new design, but everything underneath has also been reworked. The site should now be more focused, easier to use (for you as well as for me), and just generally more polished. While the amount of time that elapsed in bringing you this was inordinate, I hope you’ll agree with me that it was worth it in the end.
