Small Change: Ways Of Seeing
Yes, there's something new going on up top of this here website! The powers that be believe that you, the person of the year, would like to have choices in the ways you look at things. So! Your default view (called, for no known reason, "Picks") will be just as it always was: New stuff at the top, our older blatherings at the bottom. "Popular" means that things will be ranked by what is supposedly most popular. "All" is a little misleading. It does not quite bring the entire internet into this browser window. That would make your head pop like an overripe pumpkin on Halloween night, as Ann Magnuson so famously said. Instead it brings in content from a good number of the sites we read throughout the day. (On that page you'll find some wacky "promote" buttons, which, if pressed enough, bring posts to the front page of Gawker, apparently. NEAT. SUPER. Ah, that turned out to be a management lie! Yay.) Beneath that are some popular categories. And up top on the side there, "summary" is for people who can't be assed to read a full post and "thumbs" is for the entirely post-literate crowd who'd prefer to not have much text disturbing them at all. Please enjoy exploring. And you can totally email us with questions! Except we'll be all, "What the hell do we know?"
