Now that we’re two weeks into 2012, it seems late to be wishing everyone a happy new year, but this is our first post of the year, and so I wish you a very heartfelt and happy New Year. May this be the year that our greatest compassion for all, people, animals and the environment come to be.
If you didn’t notice we took a little break for a few months. A few of us got busy, and a few of us took a little break to really think about what we’re bringing to our readers here at Compassionate U. We have a lot of ideas, we’re gonna try them out for size, and go from there. Continuous improvement, right? That’s what it’s all about.
Here are some of the things we have in store for you:
- Some revisions to the look and feel of the site. We’ve heard from some of you that a more streamlined look would make things easier to navigate and help you know what’s new, and what might be a little older. Okay, done. Easy peesy. We can take care of that.
- Some interactive features with our writers. We’d like to get some of our writers out there with you taking your questions and having conversations about what it takes to be compassionate in this day and age. So some of our writers (me for sure!) are gonna set up some times when we’ll get together and talk amongst ourselves.
- Simple, consistent posts. I think we already have a good handle on this, but we’re taking a look back on 2011 and the posts that were the most popular, continuing with those, and perhaps shedding some of the other styles. You have to prune to grow right?
So as I write this post, know that we’re tinkering behind the scenes to make things better. As always, if you have suggestions, please don’t hesitate to let us know. Just knock on our door using this form.
