i've been holding off on this post for a while as we worked on building up an archive for you to read, but you can now, officially, tune into my daily writings over at the wonderfully singular, brand new, and newly branded, mental_floss blog. (rejoicing! cheering! dropping whatever you're doing and clicking on link! more cheering!)

for those who've been following this journal, you know i've been writing fairly consistently these last months for the magazine... but this is something completely different: two postings a day, at least, happening in real time, as i become an official blogger.

and i'm not the only wit on the space. we've got many other skilled, crafty, funny writers bringing you the daily skinny on technology, science, the arts, trivia, history, sports and everything in-between to help you feel just a smidge smarter every day.
