2. ... LII Tip of the Week: New Site Imminent
----------------------------------------------------------------------
LII is "having some work done," as people say these days, and
sometime in the next four to six weeks we will roll out our new
site. The new design is much more polished and attractive and
offers a number of new features, including improved topic
browsing, the ability to email individual LII entries, a lovely
new logo, and even a slightly shorter name: Librarians' Internet
Index. Readers of the New This Week email newsletter will not need
to change any subscription information (RSS readers, note that we
will automagically forward you to a new RSS URL). We expect a
smooth transition--but should we encounter turbulence, fasten your
seatbelts and hang on. It will be worth the ride! We'll keep you
updated.
