There’s been a bit of a hiatus here at Syntagma since the weekend. Our 1.11 recurring posts per day have been conspicuous by their absence.

We’ve been working intensively on Thord’s new design for the network. We’ve just finished the alpha stage and we’re into the beta version this afternoon.

If that works, we’ll be going live here by tomorrow or the weekend.

I must say it’s beginning to look rather splendid — as you would expect from a Thord Hedengren Special. It comes in four templates : one each for sites attached to our three network magazines, plus a neutral version for sites which don’t fit into any one of our mag spots.

We’ll also have new logos following on from the design.

Business leaders, Captains of Industry and advertisers, form an orderly queue, please.
