To finish that thought:
Such great times, when a weblog was 'links + commentary' and there was a lot of creativity with designs.

Anyone else have memories of blogging in that pre-9/11 era? (of course, after that we got political blogs and things got very serious...a bit like today's web!)

Hmmm, wonder what Musk is up to? Of course that is my immediate assumption, that there must be something in it for him. He has a new website coming out??

Thanks! It was the initial part of pushing "subscribe" and then being asked to sign in...just wasn't immediately obvious whose site you were signing into. Of course, I eventually got it, but it might scare some non-tech users?? Also the Reader feed concept wasn't immediately obvious,but now love it.
