Aqoul 4.0
I believe we are now entering Aqoul's fourth redesign (ex Newsroom, which has been revised about five times). I found an amusing mockup from 2006 in the archives, and another entry with links to the Wayback machine.
Clearly we've come a long way from that hokey default template. Aqoul is occasionally mistaken for an actual news publication because it doesn't have a "bloggy" feel. I'd like to continue in this direction and make the site even more newspaper-like. Perhaps resembling the New York Times, which has a very elegant look.

Where is my throne of skulls?
As mentioned in an earlier note, I was offered a promotion in January, the day I returned from India. New office, new mandate, not fully staffed up.
On Friday, they asked me if I wanted to run the office. In promotion terms, this isn't a step as much as a flying leap. According to a friend, it also means I get a throne of skulls and a cadre of assassins (he is joking, mostly).
So I'm feeling a little overwhelmed, but I'm quite sure I can do the job once I figure out all the details.
