I wish everybody logged their new experiences with Conversant the way Samuel Reynolds is doing. That would make it a lot easier for us to improve.

Those first attempts at any new software are precious. Most people -- especially developers -- can't ever go back to that point to see the software as a new user does.

Nice original design, too. Looks horrible in Netscape < 6, of course, but that's to be expected in a CSS-mostly practice site.
