Announcing theMINIPLEX 4.2!

The future is roughly now, my friends. Get on the boat.

I'm proud, happy, excited, and mildly nervous to announce theMINIPLEX 4.2, the latest and greatest in my own special brand of web design by redundant coding! Far greater than the incarnations before it, behold some nifty new stuff I've thrown in to double your pleasure:

• Reviews! I used to write these pretty often, but have managed to get only three together in the past year. I blame working two jobs to the tune of 60 hour work weeks, but what can you do? This site features reviews, reviews, and only reviews. Keeping the focus right where it belongs, ya dig? There's only three posted at the moment, as importing the entire catalog will take me some time. You'll see them pop up over the next few weeks.
  
• Acknowledgment of cineMUSINGS! This is the first theMINIPLEX to fully establish the cineMUSINGS connection. Every single page features a link to the most recent cineMUSINGS post - handy, right? Where theMINIPLEX will house only reviews, cineMUSINGS will be the more candid dumping ground for just about everything else I throw together.
• Simpler navigation! With a simpler premise and design comes simpler navigation! theMINIPLEX.com will always load the most recent review - no more 'front page' with indexed nut grafs and review teasers - just the content you seek! The most recent reviews will be clickable from any page on the site, as will a link to a master index of every review. Suffice it to say, you can't get lost!
• Facebook button! Clicking the Facebook 'share' button at the bottom of a review will auto-populate a post on your wall that will link folks back to the review you're reading. I set it up so that the title, blurb, and an image is auto-populated for you, so if you happen across something worth sharing with your friends, please do!
  
• Clint Eastwood! He overlooks every page and will totally kick your ass.
• Improved back-end! More exciting for me as the person who has to update the site, but beneficial to you as having everything streamlined has made it to where updating the site doesn't take as long as writing the damn review! That has to increase my motivation to publish something, yeah?
  

It's a little light at the moment, but content both past and future is on the way. Many thanks to all who have gotten on my case about writing again - I always said I would when I had a day off!

A very special thanks to my girlfriend and biggest fan, Claire. You keep me motivated, baby :-*

She's also the source of my first endorsement: "that's super cool, sweetie :-*"!

Comments? Questions? Indigestion? Let me know!

In the meantime: Enjoy!
