Following Matthew's last post, I'd like to thank him for his wonderful contribution to Gearfuse. The last three months have been an enchanted parenthesis. While it's been very refreshing working with Matthew, the kind of content that has been published here was too pointedly highbrow to attract new readers and to be a rapid grower. Yes, professional blogging is about money, too.

In little more than two months, I've written nearly four hundred posts at Gearfuse, and I've been proud of them all (well, nearly all of them�it's just blogging, after all).
