I hope not. I just like to see people realize their full potential, so I am being blunt with my constructive criticism. The guy is prolific with development and very passionate at his subject, and if he figures out design he'd get many times the readers. |

No, that's not what I meant.
Old Gil wrote "Go get yer shinebox". Then I wrote, "you insulted him a little bit". Both are quotes from Goodfellas - cause of my handle, Johnny Two Times.
I'm gonna go get the papers - get the papers. |

Two-Times,
Your site was awesome, then you changed the blogs around, why was that? Used to have BinJellonamdo, Korea Beat, and Marmot, now you have some much crappier blogs. |

Hey Azzwell,
I've received both positive and negative feedback about switching around the blogs in the expat section on the main page. The reason I did this was because I wanted to provide a spotlight for lesser known sites. In June, I'm bringing back some of the major blogs to the main page because we now have sub-sections. But, I'll continue to leave at least one slot open so I can profile new sites. |

I'm happy to be included again, but I liked being on the front page. I'm no longer in Korea, it's true, but I got bumped because I was apparently not updating like I used to. However, I post a lot more than the blogs that replaced me.
I think being on the frontpage, along with the other big, frequently-updated blogs, provided a better overview of what was in the news and the blogs for the first-time visitor, true to the site's name. But what the new version does do is provide a big resource for people looking to start reading a few blogs. It's much easier to dig through than the Korea Blog List, and provided the bloggers write post titles that are somewhat descriptive, people can get a nice preview of the blogs without having to click through each one. |

Smee,
I agree with you - the main page should be a place which provides a snapshot of what's happening in Korea - that's the best way I can serve visitors. Starting June, you and the Marmot are back on the main page. The other two slots I have not decided on yet.
Thanks for your feedback. |
