Due to the work I'm now doing for Radar, there are certain things I just don't have the time to do, so I'd like some reader input.
All the old entries from CrimeBlog.US are still available on the servers that held them. I've made efforts to move things over, but so far the move is decidedly incomplete. Now, I just don't have the time or energy to finish any work I'm doing for the magazine, publish new entries here, and then spend hours moving posts from one blog to the other.
So... from long-time readers I'd like to know which posts you'd like to see moved here. You can make your requests/suggestions in the comments on this post. You don't need to recall the exact title as long as you can remember the subject -- I'll figure it out.
Before you make your suggestion, though, please check to see if I've already moved the entry to this blog.
There's no easy way to move entries that I know of -- any software solutions I've found are filled with bugs and therefore unpredictable. So the moving has to be done by cut & paste. There are differences in the way this publishing format accepts html code, too, so some editing always has to be done when an entry from CrimeBlog.US is moved to this blog. It's time-consuming work, and reader suggestions as to old entries you'd like to see posted here would go a long way towards helping me focus my efforts as well as making this weblog more useful.
Also, remember -- I'm asking for tips or donations through the beginning of January, then removing the PayPal button, as I have reason to believe I'll no longer need it. It's a little like PBS's pledge drive. I plan to continue this blog, which is, of course, free. If I move an entry over that you've been wanting to read again, to comment on, you can consider any donations payment for that, as well.
