First, I’ve heard back from everyone and now can announce the winners for our January (and first week of February) giveaways!
You guys have been very patient while I’ve been working on the Marvel list, and I thank you for that. Without further ado:
Lex Luthor: The Unauthorized Biography
Ryan from Prospect, CT (TRO user Irishpanther)
Jason from El Monte, CA (TRO user hellboy)
Nate from Portland, OR (TRO user rageous)
Michael from New Brockton, AL (TRO user Darth Davis)
Hardware: The Man In The Machine
Sean from Hamilton, OH (TRO user Skleefeld)
Congrats everyone!
To those of you who didn’t win this time, don’t be discouraged!
We’ll keep doing giveaways every week and often there will be more than one winner. So statistically, as long as you hang around, you’ll get something eventually!
With Chris and a couple more of you offering to donate a couple of their spare books, it’s quickly becoming a little weekly bookswap. Pretty awesome.
I also wanted to note that the Skleefeld up there is Sean Kleefeld, who you may have seen elsewhere around the comics web. You should check out his writing at Kleefeld On Comics! Thanks for dropping by Sean and I hope you enjoy your lucky win!
Now Some Updates
Most of my time is spent working on the Marvel List right now, just a few days away from being online, I think. Marc also updated his annotated list, adding some stuff in the 1970s.
I also took some time to tweak the individual blog post layout. The title of the post is now bigger and spans the space above the top of the page (across the filing info and share links.)
The filing info now takes three lines with the subcategory centered on the second. The share links, on the other hand, are now spread out across one line.
I took out the Digg and Delicious buttons to make this possible – honestly, they’re kind of dying services and anyone who still uses them probably has an add-on for them already installed. Facebook, Stumbleupon, and Reddit and twitter all give a fair amount of traffic to this site, so I’m assuming that you guys still find these links to be useful.
Seriously, thanks for all the sharing – bringing this site to the attention of your friends is the number one way you can help the project. Try and get em in on the forum too, the more viewpoints we have on updates, reading orders, and what we should do next, the better the site will be in the long run.
I think that’s it for now. As always, let me know what you think!
