Introducing Lomblog Entrées™

I know I'm starting to sound like a broken record but the site continues to grow by leaps and bounds. Normally, that would be the setup for another fund-raising appeal, and in a way it is - but then, what isn't? No, my real point is, we are continuing to gain popularity. Yesterday, for some reason, we received the highest traffic in the site's over two-month (and they said it wouldn't last!) history. Of course, more important than the number of visitors is the demographics we're attracting. According to yet-to-be-released figures from a yet-to-be-named ratings organization, Lomblog is now ranked #399 among blog readers aged 18 - 24 who've attended at least one semester of junior college, and #277 among 28 - 34-year-old stay-at-home moms considering an adjustment to their Security Zone settings. Yes, that's right - we're kicking the crap out of sticks and strings: a knitting blog in its own backyard!

With all of this excitement, I thought now would be a good time to introduce my new readers to the old Lomblog, or as some of the die-hards would put it "the real Lomblog, before it sold out and went corporate." On the sidebar, you'll notice a new feature called Lomblog Entrées™. These are direct links to highlights from our first two months of posting. No longer will you have to scroll through pages and pages of the meaningless filler that make up the backbone of my work to find the buried treasures within. Think of it as a TiVo playback of Lomblog's greatest moments or a Now That's What I Call Lomblog Volume 1.

Enjoy. And for the old fans who are introducing a Lomblog classic to your friends - no spoilers!
