<p>Things are going to work a little differently at 5M.net this week. The reason is that July has come back around, and I'm back in Ottawa for the annual math camp I run. (You may remember the math camp from my excuses during Cliffhanger Week last year.) To keep myself focused, I've decided to give someone else the reins of 5M.net for the duration... and it happens there's an obvious candidate.
<p>Thing is, the other subsite whose anniversary we had to delay in June was 5MDW's. If that sounds awfully soon, it's because the subsite has only updated once since its first month. This isn't Scooter's fault, it's mine. He's been sending me submissions for a while now, and he specifically said they were <i>not</i> being saved for an event and could be published any time. Typically, I never got around to it.
<p>The practical upshot of this is that we have 12 Doctor Who fivers saved up. The anniversary is the perfect time to use them -- and since they're all for the same subsite, I can set things up so that someone else can make the updates without having to understand my elaborate PHP system. So this week, Scooter will be the first staffer to conduct his <i>own</i> subsite anniversary event. Look forward to it.
<p>Oh, and there's pie when I get back, so look forward to that too.
<p>(By the way, I forgot to mention that July 4 was also <a href="http://www.triphammered.com/">TripHammered</a>'s fourth birthday. Congrats, evay!)

You truly are a nerd's nerd, Zeke, and for that I salute you. Shine on, you crazy cubic zirconia!

July 10

The first update will be up in a couple of hours -- as soon as I can duck out of the premises of the fascist corporation I work for, which blocks access to the site.

Also while I'm here -- congrats evay! Four years for a website is like 110 in dog years. Or something.
