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

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 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.

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? :)

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.

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.

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

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? ;-)

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....)
