Christmas letter from Tormod

Dear $username -

It has been a great year for Hypography! Our forums have grown almost tenfold from November 2004 until now. We have lots of new members, ant the site is getting very busy!

From 2004 to 2005 we did a lot of work to separate our main portal and the forums, because we outgrew our hosting. Now we are working on putting them back together again with new hosting which should give us more possibilites for further services. At the same time, we are planning new and exiting content for you.

We hope to start blogging soon - several users, some with very interesting views on controversial issues - have been invited to blog at Hypography. I hope to see this up and running by January.

There will also be more regular content, like in the old days: More book reviews, more quizzes, more competitions - and of course daily news and updates like we have today.

Among other things of interest, we are hosting a charity auction in the beginning of the new year, with fantastic prints by one of famous mathemagicians, Turtle, so make sure you don't spend all your money this Christmas. All the proceeds will go to charity, of course.

I want to take this opportunity to thank you all for a wonderful 2005, and wish you a Merry Christmas (or Seasons Greetings - take your pick) on behalf of the entire Hypography staff. Hope to see you again in 2006!

Oh, and don't despair: There is proof that Santa is on his way!

All the best,

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
