We are back!
Apologies for the silence these few months. MGN was in the process of making decisions and deciding futures. You may remember that we were hosted (and as of this publication, the site still is hosted on our own server at meangreennation.com. We are big fans of owning our own intellectual property on infrastructure we have (somewhat) direct control over. We decided to move this over here for a couple of reasons:
We are fans of the substack/newsletter model. I happily pay for a good number of newsletters and read a ton of them daily.
While blogging is still close to my heart, pushing notifications (via email!) is the wave of the future (and the past) and we know everyone is busy and can’t be bothered to go to some-url-dot-com every morning to check for the latest and greatest.
Twitter was our mechanism of pushing out notifications and updates for a while, but now that it is the Site Formerly Known As Twitter, and the utility of it is debatable, we had to make some kind of decision. You may have previously received emails from MGN via a newsletter/update. Those were mostly digest-style posts with links to where we wanted you to read. We figured pushing you updates means you get the posts when we write them and you don’t have to find them on the internet — a place where it is increasingly difficult to find what you are looking for.
The plan is still the same
We don’t have any plans about changing the model here. There will be preview posts, film room stuff, some complaining, etc.
So that podcast?
I do not want to bore you with details but the podcast still lives in the same space. You will not have to update your subscriptions. We might do something with the premium stuff, but right now that is all just an idea.
Now I have a season preview to write.
A New Era For MGN
FYI I am importing a lot of old posts so it might look weird for a few hours.
