Good on you for putting in the effort.. I like the idea of providing
easily digestible tidbits of practical info.

My only criticism is that I reckon it could do without lingo like
this. You don't need to take all the fun out of it, but I personally
groaned when I read this bit :-)  Speaking only for myself, I would
almost certainly find the articles too torturous to read if they
included "teh" latest in teen Internet lingo.

cheers,
