it was all a mythtake

Finally, someone steps up to debunk The Myth of "Seven, Plus or Minus 2".

i can't make head nor tail of where i might make this comment under the new 'organization' of ehack, but i think you're falling prey to the 'when all you've got is a hammer' problem. yeah moveable type does neat stuff with categories and soforth, but you have so many they're staggering, not helpful. abstract up a level or two. and i miss the 'blog' link or whatever it was. trying to find out what you've been posting. perhaps your other colleagues love this new design, but i think its even more confusing and difficult to navigate than the old one.

feh.

The "blog" link is still there, but Christina has renamed it to "Gleanings" ... is it time for Jakob to step in and say the link text should be "blog", just like he says site maps should be linked as "site map" ?
