We Still Have a Home on the Internet

By Justin Katz | August 21, 2011 |

Readers who’ve been around that long may recall a little bit of a panic ’round here two years ago that we wouldn’t be able to cover our Web hosting costs around this time of year. Well, this year, thanks to your monthly and one-time donations, I was able to renew for another year with no…

Charting a New Course

By Marc Comtois | August 18, 2011 |

So we tried to see if we could make a fiscal go of it, as Justin has explained, but now we’re scaling back a bit at Anchor Rising. (Some of us–me–got an early start with a particularly busy summah). Over the last few months, we’ve all have found it harder to do our duty and…

You may have noticed over the past few months that we’ve occassionally been reprinting Anchor Rising posts over at the Anchor Rising Facebook page; part of the intention is to experiment with a comment-space that is a little less anonymous than the no-registration option of a standalone blog.

Important Note on Commenting

By Justin Katz | December 21, 2010 |
