Blog Work Coming

Notice - the blog will be undergoing some much needed maintenance this weekend. If you load the page and it doesn't look right, refresh after a few minutes. I intend to change a few things - like the links - and prepare the back end for the possibility of opening up the blog to some limited advertising. I have put off or altogether ignored advertising requests on the blog for years now, and am by no means wealthy enough to maintain such a position.

A few weeks ago I conducted an open post to examine what was on the minds of the readers here. Rob and Bryan seem to have their fingers on the pulse of events (the broad coverage of both of them validates my thinking there), while Feng and GvG continue to pull together world events quite well. I personally believe LtCol Roger Galbraith has brought something unique to the blog - a voice of the Corps.

The question though is whether you, the reader, feel something is missing. If so, what? I'd still like to get a submarine expert and a Marine Corps strategist, but finding a submariner with an opinion they will actually blog is very difficult, and all the Marine Corps strategists I know have a day job that prevents them from writing.

So here is your chance. Tell me what you'd like to see. June 2nd marks the third anniversary of Information Dissemination. In such a short time, I'd say the blog has come a long way. With that said, there is still work to do.
