Blog Redesign

I’m pleased to announce that after years of frustration with the current design of the blog, I’ll be launching today a redesigned blog. Remeike Forbes, the aesthetic visionary behind Jacobin—he’s given the magazine its distinctive look, a look that captures the magazine’s original animating spirit, both intellectual and political, as no one article quite can—has been working on the redesign, off and on, for a long time. The new design is simpler, it’s more adaptable to various platforms, the text is a lot more legible (something many of you complained about over the years), and it’s got some cool features like a nifty timeline where you can scroll easily to find posts. All the links will remain the same, and if you’re a subscriber, you’ll get posts as you do now. Nothing in that regard will change. One word of caution: the site may be facing some technical difficulties over the coming weeks as we work through various issues we didn’t anticipate. So please be patient.

Update (11:30 am)

The blog just informed me that this is my 666th post.
