Site News & Notes

7-30-10 -- Tune In listings have been updated...I am still working on getting the Headlines listings updated soon and adding new submissions for the The MM Employment Line...The redesign for the Jewelry Review section went much slower than I originally anticipated, but it was completed at the start of July. I hope everyone likes the new look! I even threw in some cool details, like adding a Twitter feed for suppliers who have one available. I also added all of the backlogged reviews that have been piling up for way too long. Any new reviews or Signature Pieces submitted will hopefully go up in a more timely manner...Contributing writer Jess Taylor visited AGRO's SuperPull event and put together a picture-filled feature for us...Jess Taylor did an excellent interview with Mizuz Inkaholik, which you should definitely check out...If anybody is interested in making this site better, please contact me. I'd love to have some of the ideas from the Launchpad section materialize, but I need contributions from the readers to make it happen...Stay Tuned!
