I'm back from a nice long week off and trying something new today with the links. This listing is the rough cut, as I read through them I'll put together a final cut that will include my remarks as well them ... so the final cut will only contain some of the links in this listing - not all.
I've had many people tell me they like just the links, although that remark is usually followed by a mention of there being too many links. I've also had even more people tell me they would like to hear what I have to say about the links ... and in the process create more of a refined and shorter list of links. So in my attempt to create a better link blog, this next week I'm going to try an experiment of publishing both the rough cut and the final cut ... so please feel free to make a comment and let me know what you think.
