You suffered through two days with no comments. When comments returned, you had to click "all comments" on every single page you visited in order to read them. You stared at the page in befuddlement wondering why "The Tyee Most Recent" hadn't changed since Monday.
But at least you didn't have to read tiny, pea-soup green italic type.
We may have kept our now-retro design, but the launch of the redesigned Tyee did not spare The Hook after all.
It is only fair, therefore, that Hook readers get invited to The Tyee Re-Launch Rally.
If you're already registered with a commenting account, you've already completed the first lap.
A couple clicks of the mouse through the redesigned site will get you ahead of the pack.
And finally, to prove that you really are a feisty one online, post your best photos of B.C. scenes in The Tyee's flickr pool. (Remember to add the tag 'rally09' so we know which photos you are entering in the contest.)
And why would you do all this, you ask? Prizes, of course!
After all, why should politicians get all the great swag?

But why?
It seem to be a trend to re-organize web-oriented pages.
My credit union probably set the record for wasting money on questionaires and programmers, as if anyone cares as long as they do the damned job they are there for, namely to manage money!
Why you felt a need to re-organize I can only guess it because it makes you feel important?
Small regular changes and updates are fine, but what is with all this fanfare?
The only thing anyone ever asked for was that you stop the "best comment" idea, and that of course is now the default.
Maybe your drive for funds was so succesfull that you simply had to find a way to spend it?
There is an old saying: "Leave things be!"
it is short and simple advice that is not listened to these days.
