   Wel­come Mark.  I’ve always enjoyed your site, and was happy to learn that you made it through in the first-round.

   Wel­come, Mark!  With sites the caliber of yours join­ing, I think it’s safe to say that the 9rules Net­work is going to con­quer the world.  

   (Now if you could just tone down your design a bit so my sites don’t look so weak in com­par­ison, that’d be great.…)

   Thanks all. I’m look­ing for­ward to see­ing how things pan out with the 9Rules Net­work. As other sites, under dif­fer­ent cat­egor­ies, begin to be integ­rated into the Net­work, we could see a huge increase in not only read­er­ship and gen­eral traffic, but also in terms of rev­enue and busi­ness opportunity. 

   Excit­ing times. 

   James — I’m think­ing of a polka-dot design for the next ver­sion — maybe violet and orange, with BIG type — Comic Sans maybe. What do you think? ;-)

   They say the Geo­cit­ies look is com­ing back into fash­ion.  I say go for it!

   Fant­astic. Mark, I came upon your site a few weeks ago after read­ing your art­icle on Grid Sys­tems in Design in Flight. 

   I love atten­tion to detail and look for­ward to your articles.

   Con­grats, I’ve always thought the second gen­er­a­tion of blogs are focused not on link­ing exist­ing con­tent but on pro­du­cing fresh con­tent. Yours surely falls on the second category.

    Great site. I found you through the 9rules net­work and I am glad I did. I love the way you are dis­play­ing com­ments as thought bubbles. Any interest in writ­ing an art­icle on how you do it? :)

    Thanks all, keep check­ing back for some inter­est­ing stuff over the next few weeks. 

    - The rest of the “Five simple steps… Typo­graphy”
    
    - The next simple steps series (I’ve got another inter­est­ing one in the pipeline)

    There’s going to be some inter­est­ing updates to the site to keep it aligned with the new Net­work as well.

    Con­grats, Mark! 

    BTW, it seems that images in your art­icles are broken in indi­vidual art­icle pages (like http://www.markboulton.co.uk/journal/comments/9rules_network/) They work on the journal home page, tho.

    Thanks for the heads up Jarkko, that’s fixed now. Pesky ‘XHTML Typo­graphy’ plugin.
