Two Three changes regarding the toolbars:

Ed Johnson, James Kanjo and several other people have written to me to point out that it's trivial to hide the toolbars with CSS. As Ed explains,

Some people have asked how we choose which sites to display on that annoying but actually very useful bottom toolbar. If you want to know how useful, go to your web statistics and check traffic over the last day. You'll see a hundred or so extra visitors each day.

Yesterday we launched the new toolbars for free sites, to a mixed reaction. Today we'll be pushing out a thinner top toolbar as suggested by many of you, and looking at reducing the size of the bottom toolbar as well.

If you're getting display problems with the new toolbars (top or bottom) on your custom CSS layout, tell us about it here and we will help you fix them immediately. Post the web site address, and a short description of the problem, thanks. We'll monitor this thread and respond as rapidly as possible.

Today we're rolling out a new release of Wikidot, aimed at reinforcing the Wikidot Community and making it clearer what you get when you upgrade to a pro account.

Tuesday is Rant Day, the best day of the week for complaining. It's a little known fact that the name comes from the old word Tīwesdæg, the day of the Nordish god Tīwes, who was famous for ranting. And also for waging war, perhaps because he was so angry at not being able to search his forums.
