Bye bye, media ..
As some of my beloved readers might remember, sayforward.com originally started with the issues only. After a few months I got a bit lost and I decided to open the media section for the regulars, so they could enjoy the fresh stuff the time it comes in.
Lately though, I've found myself arranging new media in the way I used to make up the issues. I guess I just love to put pictures in a new context. Fellow RSS users, bloggers and tumblrs know that reading, saving and posting stuff is quite a bitch when it comes down to hours sitting in front of the screen. Rearranging takes even more time and I realized that the archive is just not the place for doing this. That being said — issues or media, one of them just had to go.
Wait, what?
The media section is closed until further notice. Images, videos and RSS feeds stay online, though. Furthermore, all content I add to the archive remains public, so if you want to link, repost or show stuff to friends, you are welcome. I pledge to reopen media when the dust has settled and the archive is mixed up again.
Till then, enjoy the sun ![]()
Site improvements and changes
Now that this site is online for about 2 months, I decided to open a new category, which is more frequently updated than the issues. As you can see in the right sidebar, you are now able to browse all the latest media actually being added to the site, including images, videos and audio files (the very base of every issue).
Notice for RSS users
There is also a slight change in the RSS address architecture. Please subscribe to the new paths (for instance /browse/*/rss) as soon as possible, since the old ones (i.e. /rss.xml/*) will be put out of service on October the 1st, 2009.

The All New Shared Items
Okay, all this Google Shared Items crap is over now. I realized that it will take forever to port these items from Google. As some people already suggested, regurlarly increasing the item number is not about to make it any better if I really intend to host it myself. So fuck it
You can still browse the old stuff on Google by visiting sayforward.com/reader, but there will be no further updates.
Here is the deal
From now on I am maintaining a similar RSS blog at sayforward.com/latest/issue. It's still an early version with just the basic features, but I already have some ideas about future improvements, don't worry. Feel free to change your bookmarks and feed subscriptions..
Bye bye, Google.
In the meantime ..
Well, well, I am still porting my Shared Items to this site and it seems it'll take some more time as you might have guessed already. Nonetheless, I've managed to sew a tiny new dress for my Google page which is online at http://sayforward.com/reader
This site ain't ready, right?
Easy, easy, ladies and gentlemen, I am close to finish my work on the layout of this site and I am already moving and rearranging all the stuff from Google. I intend to open this site probably on Monday, February 23 some day in March (I had exams last weeks and now there is a lot of work in my job), just in case you like to stop by again.
