A year ago today, J-Walk posted this blog entry.
What did we post here at Steel White Table a year ago today?

Anyone notice the new blurb in this site’s header image? Quit reading this through Google Reader or Bloglines and visit the site for a change to see it.

I added a Random Past Posts section to the top of the vertical menu on the right-side there, for tommyboy. The links display the date it was posted and the number of comments the post has.

You can now receive email notifications when someone posted a comment to a post: just check the Notify me of followup comments via e-mail box under the Submit Comment button.

This site is getting some major changes soon: new theme and directory structure tweaks. I’ll try to keep current links working (using .htaccess settings), but if they break, tough shit.
Don’t worry: the site’s content will be just as boring.

I’ve been receiving some complaints about Steel White Table’s home page (Phillip, Jimbob…), how its content hasn’t changed since the site has been redesigned.
Phillip suggested I get rid of the home page altogether, making the blog section the home page. I’m not going to do that, though, because I plan on putting home page [...]

I was sitting at my kitchen table this morning quietly listening to some Celine Dion while drinking a bag of milk when someone knocked on my igloo door. It was a Mountie from Quebec. He informed me — in French — that a package had arrived from Arizona. (I didn’t ask why he was delivering [...]

Yesterday, Wednesday, February 20, 2008, SWT received the most visits ever. Uêba: Os Melhores Links, a link farm, linked to the Facebook Doesn’t Like People Aged 98+ post, causing a huge spike in the number of visitors.

My usual spikes are caused by J-Walk.

My favourite SWT random tagline so far:
Always remember you’re unique, just like everyone else.

We received lots of good suggestions from the SWT Tagline Contest post, so we decided to implement a new feature: random taglines!
The site’s tagline (the text underneath the title at the top) randomly changes when the page is refreshed. Taglines suggestions are welcome.

The number of posts at SWT has declined the past year. I used to post about every stupid thing, but now I rely on J-Walk and similar sites for my daily dose of useless information, knowing everyone in the world reads them, too.
So, what should I post about? Similar stupid stuff that every [...]

Okay, it’s not really a contest. Prizes will not be handed out.
But if you have any suggestions for a new tagline for Steel White Table, let us know in the comments.
The “winner” gets an email from me saying, “Thanks!”

Stealing J-Walk’s idea, here are Steel White Table’s statistics from the past 30 days according to Google Analytics. Note that for three days there was nothing recorded: I forgot to add the code to the new design (around Dec. 31, 2007).
