Curious to hear what your hesitation about the community is. I'd really recommend poking around (in fact I challenge you!) to the different blogs - they are all so amazingly good at what they do and presenting it online. It used to be a "community" in that there were forums (what's on <a href="http://www.chawlk.com/notes" rel="nofollow">Chalk</a> now) but now they've gone back to their roots in only promoting member content. :) @Nils: Thanks, Nils!! Indeedy - 9rules is definitely a special place. It's amazing how we can have civil, intelligent conversation on typically hot button topics. And it's all about putting out quality product over attention mongering. All concepts are fair game and everyone respects each other's opinion without getting personal or butt-hurt about things. Hee hee. :) @owbert: How do you say? Curious to hear what your hesitation about the community is.

My sentiments exactly and precisely the reason why I love hanging out there so much. I've always felt 9r was a special place; it shows.

Good and bad. My good friend Tim has a Rock Band band named Obama-nation. He was saying, it's weird that that word play is not used more. @Mike: Oh wow! Aww... :) BIG HUG @Peckas: Haha yeah, I have a lot of Obama links saved (I’m a fan supporter too) ;) on my del.icio.us and that’s fed in in my footer, which would explain all the Obama ads that come up in my adsense.

I'm just an Obama fan and the add listed is talking about what an "obamanation" he is... Just realized his name spells the first part that word. He's just part of an Obama-Nation!! Not an "obamanation". Hahaaa Think I can get a job as a speech writer??? Cheers! I thought that was the case.

Believe me, I was dying too. ;) @Mike: Took who long enough? For the relaunch? Yes I believe you need sleeeep nowww... @Peckas: Thanks, I'm honored that you said that. And no, I don't have control over what appears in my Google adsense panel. Google sees what's on my page and automatically sends relevant text ads to my page from a plethora of ads purchased by advertisers with Google. I hope that made sense. :) Wow, thanks each and every one of you – for all the congratulations and welcomes!! :) Oh, and the multitude of compliments; I’m humbled. I definitely feel right at home.
