In my blog entry of August 3rd, I announced that this front page of torontomike.com had undergone some major surgery. I also asked you to let me know if the end result was better or worse than the previous concept that had been around for the past seven months.
The clear consensus from those who bothered to drop me a line is that you preferred the old front page. To quote one visitor, "No sir, I don't like it". To quote another, "As my Uncle Oloff used to say 'if it ain't broke don't fix it'". And yet another, "I miss the old home page!".
I do appreciate the feedback, but here's what I think...this new concept is better! You'll notice there are more frequent postings and you're still only one click away from pictures, videos, the Dead Pool, Homer's Quote of the Week or whatever. With everythng time-stamped and archived, you won't miss a beat.
I think you people are suffering from Metathesiophobia. Metathesiophobia, or Fear of Change as it's sometimes called, is created by the unconscious mind as a protective mechanism. At some point in your past, there was likely an event linking changes and emotional trauma. Don't be a victim. Embrace change. Embrace the new torontomike.com.
