I followed this story link from Twitter and I don’t see it linked anywhere here on BP… are you creating a new sub-section?
yes. they’ll appear here and on social media. At this point not putting them all on the front page. Happy to hear feedback about that. thanks.
That’s a good call. How about a label under “Columns” in the top nav-bar?
yes, under either Columns or The Latest…
although I see now that they’re on the right side-bar under Collision Chronicles…
I’m beginning to see that when my wife’s family refers to BMW’s as Bum W’s, they’re not talking about the relative quality of the vehicle.
