This fall I'll be looking for green shoots...

Because this site is overrun with teenagers I've always assumed it would be impossible to wreck; piss off one lot and a year later the next class would "discover" the site. Yes, there is (well was) a skeleton of young-at-heart-but-more-mature-in-body users who did a lot of the tidying up and adding historic material. But the database, the high-quality domain name, and the willingness of each generation to succumb to the same mistakes as the last, seemed to underwrite TV.com's prospects in perpetuity. Well I think we're about to find out if I'm right. I know things are always slack in August-that's the perennial whine of the summer blog-but after last September's redesign and June's great blog cull it seems like this place has become an abode for tumbleweed and nowt else. I did a recce mid-week and struggled to find a blog with even a dozen comments; no sign of the heady days when they could wrack up 100+. (Or is it just me? And if so can someone point me at the some life.) But I don't think the site's done for yet. So I've got my fingers crossed that the new season will bring green shoots from TV.com's dead wood. (Rather like abdullah's return.) Otherwise I might have to sign up for facebook. :shock: And trust me: the world is not ready for that. :lol:
