It's the Holiday Season and that means two things: 1) Big Surprises; 2) Big Disappointments. With that in mind, I'm here to share with you, first, a surprise. Tomorrow, barring any unforeseen sabotage by internal detractors, we'll be launching a redesigned look and feel for Going Concern. We've been sporting our current layout for quite awhile and the feeling amongst us (and many of you that participated in our fall survey) was that we need to update things a bit. After quite a bit of yelling and few instances of people stomping around the room like 3 year-olds, we've got something we're all (more or less) happy with. Personally, I wanted to spring the revamped website on you like your parents divorce at the Thanksgiving table but I was convinced to share the news with you a day before for the sake of goodwill, transparency and all that crap. Along with the redesign, there will be some upcoming promotions and other new stuff that will undoubtedly change your lives forever. Now, after an initial freak out, I'm sure you'll have plenty of questions, which you are invited to share in the comments or by emailing us. But I will save you the trouble of asking the obvious – Yes, we will be maintaing the same commenting format, so you'll be able to protect your true identities with cleverly devised Internet personas. Oh right, the disappointments. If you're devastated by this news and tomorrow your vision is completely shattered by the eyesore in front of you, we invite your feedback and suggestions for what will make your experience less sucky. You may now shriek with glee.
