I’m really hoping that this is the last podcast before the big Widescreen.org overhaul. It’s actually done except for one page where I’m trying to use a function that my web hosting company hasn’t updated since the Jurassic. They’ve been told about it and they’ve started to make some upgrades, but I’d like to wait until they’re complete. Then again, the one page isn’t going to be a major problem if it’s not ready; but I want to give them a chance to fix it. So, the sixth iteration of Widescreen.org is so-o-o-o-o ridiculously close!
