While in total we published 53 posts in 2010 – down 11 compared to 64 posts in 2009 – we have received a total of 113 comments, doubling our comment-per-article ratio from 1 to 2. We again met our self-imposed goal of publishing on average at least one post per week – it was, however, closer this year. Our New Year’s resolution for 2011: beat the 2009 level of posts but keep the comment-per-article ratio at 2.
