			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I know, stupid title, but it was better than &#8220;Planning for the Past&#8221;.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re a subscriber and you didn&#8217;t get the email I just sent out, then you need to check your spam filters!  I&#8217;ve got some plans in the works right now, the most pressing of which is a total redesign of <a href="http://matthewebel.com" target="_top">Matthew Ebel dot com</a>.  Once that site is done, I&#8217;m going to attack <em>this</em> site and fix a whole lot of broken, sketchy, or otherwise badly-assembled stuff.  Here&#8217;s what I had in mind:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Make the site simpler.</strong>  This site&#8217;s far too complicated, honestly.</li>
<li><strong>Integrate better with the dot com site.</strong> I&#8217;d honestly like this site to be nothing but the Backstage area and just use my regular site for all the promotions, news, and feeds.</li>
<li><strong>Make finding the goodies easier.</strong>  I keep hearing from subscribers who just plain aren&#8217;t downloading their stuff.  <em>The whole point of this site is to automate the delivery so you don&#8217;t have to download it yourself.</em>  I&#8217;ll find a better system. <img src='https://matthewebel.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </li>
</ul>
<p>There are other plans in the works as well, but right now I&#8217;d like to hear your feedback on how I can make this whole system work better.  Please let me know!</p>
