Happy New Year

December 31, 2001 by Michael Boyle

Happy New Year

everyone! A hearty thanks to everyone who reads mikel.org throughout the year. 2002 will feature the 2nd anniversary of this weblog and will also mark the 7th anniversary of my publishing a personal site on the web. Two things that will come in 2002: a new more flexible design with some enhanced services built in, plus I’ll be making a serious attempt to post occasional longer articles on something approaching a regular schedule.
