That is a word that is probably much lower than vlog(s) and video
blog(s). It is much more commone amongst the community members than
it is to the average Web user. Also noote, "video blogging" does not
show the Yahoo Group in Google.

The external community links have been added to the bottom of the home
page, exactly like the old site. The badges were removed many months
ago due to the lollipop look.
The links were not removed to horde traffic. I intended to build out
detailed pages with screenshots and photos for the handbook. The
launch came a month early and it was a scramble to organize
everything. I apologize for the unintentional diss.

I'm very sorry you are no longer a regular visitor. I'm surprise you
have an issue with the FeedBurner stats since the only changes have
been improvements. You can now see compare up to 10 vlogs of your
choice and see each comparison (or an individual vlog) over various
timeframes (24 hours to 1 year). Note, none of the old features were
removed.

Not sure what you mean? Node 101 was not part of the bottom home page
links, but that was a mistake. I will add it now.

I'll watch...
Thank you for your feedback! I've made a point to address every issue
that has been presented (commented or emailed) to me. This is the
quickest way to make the site better.
Sometimes, I'm too close to the development to see these issues.
