It started out as RelapsedCatholic, when basically there was PopCultureJunkMail, RobotWisdom and the ChristianityToday.com blog.

Before comments, before Instapundit, before Buzzmachine, before RSS -- I AM. My traffic has almost doubled since this time last year, and Lord knows I piss off all the right people, so I must still be doing something right.

Got a favourite post of mine? Let me know: kshaidle - AT - rogers.com

And yeah: "birthday presents"/"tips" are more than welcome :-)

Thanks for being here.
