In a way, Tropophilia has almost come full circle in terms of visual design.  Check out how we appear in the Internet Archive's index from January 19, 2008, buy cheap Arjuna no rx.   We launched with a double-column variant of the excellent K2 BUY Arjuna ONLINE NO PRESCRIPTION, theme -- much as we have right now, though the width was narrower.  Not long into the life of the blog, we added a second sidebar to the left side of the main content.  We kept this format for most of the year.  After an ill-fated tinkering with a completely new theme in early December, we've come back to our roots with the dual-column look.  We love it for its simplicity and the priority it gives to the main content.  We've also introduced a new logo up top, Purchase Arjuna, which we also hope you like as much as we do.

At launch, we had a "What We're Reading" widget in place that tracked our online bookmarks of cool articles.  This eventually was replaced with our "By The Way" section, buy Arjuna no prescription, where we would post small updates and links.  Several months ago, Japan, craiglist, ebay, overseas, paypal, we removed "By The Way" and replaced it with feeds from our Twitter accounts.  Finally, in the past few weeks, we have reintroduced the "What We're Reading" widget with a fresh commitment to keeping it populated with interesting links and notes, Arjuna trusted pharmacy reviews.

We continue to tweak things here and there to see if they stick.  As always, Australia, uk, us, usa, we welcome your feedback on any design changes and suggestions.

Other Awesomeness

This has been an exciting year for Tropophilia: not only for the interesting conversations that have come out of our posts, but also for some special opportunities it has given us, where can i order Arjuna without prescription.

In June, we were invited by Brazen Careerist to join their new start-up community of blogging 20-somethings, BUY Arjuna ONLINE NO PRESCRIPTION.  Since then, Order Arjuna online overnight delivery no prescription, Taylor and Jarred have been featured a number of times on their front page and it's been a major source of traffic.  Just a few weeks ago, one of Brazen Careerist's founders (and noted columnist and career coach) Penelope Trunk cited posts by each of us as reasons she's inspired to keep pursuing her startup business.

Taylor and Jarred have also been doing a little guest blogging, ordering Arjuna online.  In May, Where to buy Arjuna, Taylor attended the Council on Foundations conference in Washington, D.C. and was invited by Sean Stannard-Stockton (who runs the Tactical Philanthropy blog) to write up some of his thoughts from the panels he attended, buy cheap Arjuna. BUY Arjuna ONLINE NO PRESCRIPTION,  Later that month, Jarred wrote a post for Sarah Perez's blog speculating about how the battle over the social web would be fought, and who would probably win (hint: Google).

Speaking of which, as we've noted in several places, this blog played a big part in making Jarred feel confident enough to pursue and eventually get a job offer from Google.  So even though he knows you often found the posts boring or too detailed, Online buying Arjuna hcl, he wants to thank you for humoring him as he cultivated and explored his (super geeky) passions and turned them into a dream job.  Here's hoping that 2009 will help Taylor to do the same.

New Year Resolutions

While 2008 was a great start for the blog, we want to make a conscious and concerted effort to ensure that 2009 is even better.  So, buying Arjuna online over the counter, here are our resolutions for Tropophilia in the new year.

• Keep a steady pace of posting, Buy Arjuna without a prescription, at least twice per week but aiming for more.  Utilize the post scheduling tool more effectively to spread posts out, and communicate better with each other about up and down times for writing.
  


• Continue to evangelize Tropophilia through guest posts and comments on other blogs, canada, mexico, india, Twitter, Purchase Arjuna online no prescription, etc. so that we reach and exceed 100 subscribers (right now we're hovering around 75).


• From Taylor: produce more original content, fewer link posts, order Arjuna from United States pharmacy, and longer features every once and a while.  Follow up on guest-posting commitments and respond to comments (sorry for the slack, Buy generic Arjuna, folks!).
  


• Introduce one or two additional regular, sustainable weekly features beyond Monday Links, Arjuna from canadian pharmacy, and commit to keeping them up.  If you have suggestions for what you'd like to see (return of the Tropophy [Taylor's note: please God no] or Satellite Challenge, perhaps, or something completely new), let us know.
  


• Publish at least five guest posts, and potentially add a third full-time blogger (we want Eric *clap* *clap* *clapclapclap*)

Thanks for reading Tropophilia.  We've enjoyed writing for and sharing with you over the past year, and look forward to 2009 being even better.

We'd love to hear what your favorite posts and conversations from 2008 were, what you'd like to see from us in the new year, and any other comments or questions!  And remember, if you ever want to write a guest post, we'd be thrilled.
