My old man taught me to say "so long" whenever we parted because he contended "goodbye" should be reserved for permanent occasions, like the one Emily Dickinson refers to here:
Good-by to the life I used to live, And the world I used to know; And kiss the hills for me, [...]

I was originally aiming for a "Sopranos"-style ending at T/S rather than going with the typical farewell post. Journey on the jukebox. Onion rings. Ominous stalkers. Suddenly, a black screen! But what the heck. I've blogged in a variety of forums, and True/Slant was special in its combination of flexibility [...]

I will not yet say goodbye. Sentimental old fool, yes. Also -- technophobic. Have to sit down and figure out how to migrate Broadside somewhere else; one T/Ser says "easy" another said, not.

Boy, word sure gets around fast. Some True/Slant writers will become contributors at Forbes. Others will not. Most all will do other things online. If you'd like an easy guide to what your favorite T/S contributor will be doing next, 'The Goodbye Channel' is the place to go.

When you launch a news start-up on the Internet, there's two ways you can go: harness your powers of ego projection and hope your product catches up with it; or get down to work and start keeping up with and occasionally defining the news cycle. True/Slant chose the latter path. In April [...]
