Nit-picking: On the frontpage, the description on the sideblog says 'This sideblog keeps track of site news and metatalk threads', yet all the threads are from AskMefi.

Fully more than a third of the first 6 posts aren't , actually.

Math is hard.

Hey, I was picking nits, not being constructive... howsabout 'This sideblog keeps track of site news and threads across the site'?

I thinkit's more an indication that the green is about 250% more interesting than the blue or the grey.

"This sideblog keeps track of site news and selected fantastic posts"

Basically I look at the things people mark as fantastic and try to highlight the stuff from AskMe that seems to really rock. Mathowie uses it for site news and highlighting some cool stuff in MeFi or things that need announcing from MeTa.

Hehe. I didn't mean that to sound as dismissive as it sounded. I just figure if Matt can cut-and-paste something, it's more likely it'll get changed.
