Your suggestion about putting the author names at the top is a good
one and has been implemented. As Kevin indicated in one of his
early posts to the front page, we intend to keep making
improvements as we go along. It is, after all, less than a week
since we launched.
You particularly criticized the "continue reading..." links. The
reason we did it that way is that the design team felt that it was
even more annoying to have to scroll and scroll and scroll past a
long article before getting to the next one.
Guy said it, this is intended to be a place where people contribute
longer articles. Each person contributes no more than three times a
week so they have time to research and write something longer. We
can certainly ask our readers if they would rather scroll, scroll,
scroll than have to follow a link. If most people agree with you,
then we can make the change. But if you don't like the idea of
longer articles at all, I don't know what to say. That was the
whole idea behind OSP. It is intended to be more of a blog-zine
than a blog, directory names notwithstanding.
