Barefoot coding, Amy. Bleeding-edge.

Someone recommended Lynda to me. I recommended they pay for me to use it!

Yes, I think that comments on Twitter are more analogous to water-cooler chat than are inline comments. Thanks for proving the point!

The thing that was repeatedly brought up to me after I posted this is that you lose pageviews from folks refreshing to see if there are new comments. That's probably true, but for one thing, you're not losing uniques and for another, you're gaining notoriety elsewhere.

I'm not married to this idea, of course. It's one of many I've had on the subject and I'll get around to posting more here in the future.

Thanks for dropping by!

I didn't edit the story, but my guess is that the print edition simply had to be trimmed a little to fit the space. It's not uncommon.

Saw that on a ride yesterday. They're certainly moving faster than they used to -- or maybe they just weren't all that impressed this time around and wanted to give someone else a chance.

Intense Debate is fickle -- lately, I've noticed that it's hard to undo such actions. Also, I've noticed it simply won't let me like or dislike a comment at all in some cases.

The people I've known there love nothing more than to invite people! Of course, they've all just moved out.

No ban on big box stores to speak of. Here's a salient bit from a Nov. 2010 story on the plaza (and specifically big-box types): The location, the consultants said, would be attractive to a large retailer such as Lowe's, Walmart or King Soopers Marketplace -- three retailers that have expressed interest in Boulder -- and others such as Sam's Club, Kohl's and JCPenney. In 2002, Walmart was unsuccessful in its bid to open a store at the Diagonal Plaza.
