Thanks for all the feedback on how often I should posting the links post. At this point, I’ll keep doing one a week. Looking at my fall show schedule – I doubt I’ll be able to manage more than one even if I want to.

And a quick question for those of you who made it to the end of the list of links – would you prefer to get all the links I find more than once a week? I’ve noticed that the list of links is getting longer almost every week. So I’m trying to decide if it makes sense to do more than one links post a week.
I’d appreciate it if you could let me know what you think by commenting on this post.
Thanks
