Our latest cosmetic surgery

By now many of you will have noticed that we've dropped our right sidebar column. If it's still appearing on some browsers, such as Safari, try clearing your cache. For several months we offered a Short Takes feature in our left column, but we were never pleased enough with how it functioned. Now we have integrated all Short Takes items and done away with the sidebar column. When you see a short item without art, you'll know it's what we used to call a Short Take.

We have scrapped our three-column layout because it was becoming increasingly cluttered. Our blogroll items are now listed in our individual biographies. (The link for Jeremy's bio is broken at the moment, but we're working on it. Try clicking here if you can't wait for us to get it together.)

We hope you like our two-column layout, and we'll keep improving on it.
