Based on the first day's trial, it's looking like that if it hadn't been for the Boo-crash we'd have had more traffic for both the Salon and the OT than usual, which makes it a win.
In spite of appearances the Salon isn't a newswire, so if it takes a few extra hours for news to appear there, I wouldn't see that as a bad thing.
I'm sure if something unavoidably important happens we'll hear about it anyway, one way or another.
And yes, most of the items, whether you access and post them early in the morning or the evening before, are the same.
Anyway, if there are people who want someone to shoot over this change, it's not Fran: the idea was mine.
