New look. New name. Same old store.

We have crossed the chasm. This blog is now more about Global Neighborhoods than it is about Naked Conversations. It's time for a new masthead, and it seems to me the blue is a bit softer than the red that Scoble selected a year ago. Our Naked baby, conceived with Robert Scoble turns one-year-od tomorrow, so I thought the timing to be pretty appropriate.

There is also a new URL, although it was not my first choice and all the others still work. 
But the new book official address is http:globalneighborhoodsbook.com. Please remove your fingers fr4om your throat. It was the best I could do.  Since my friends across the puddle complained vehemently that the new name should be Global Neighbourhoods, I almost went with that spelling in their honor, er, I should say "honour." But I know how many books we sold in the US, vs the UK and Ireland, and I just don't want to confuse all those affluent Americans who like to read.

I think Ireland sales were pretty strong Shel, welcome to my neighbourhood :)

Pat,
OU kid.

Pat,

Let's make a deal. I will give you one euro for every book we sold in Ireland. Now you give me $1 USD for every one we sold in the States. Strong Euro. Weak dollar. What say you?

Love the new colour, or is it color?

Don't forget your fans in Canada, Shel. We're neighbours with a "u" too!

Nice RGB combination! (I wanted to steer clear of the developing color v. colour controversy)

Red is power, Blue is trust.

Yeah, looks nice around here ... Even some of us Americans in Canada use "ou" too ;).

Accept the offer Pat!

Nice one on the new header.
