To those who still check this blog occasionally, or might visit it by accident while cleaning up their bookmarks, know this:

Bored Athenians, after five and a half fairly chaotic years of brief commentary and shameless link-theft, is suspending operations due to all contributing authors being seduced away by Twitter, which far better suits our miniscule attention spans and need for immediate posting gratification.

You can find ongoing pedantry, punditry, and platitudes from your favorite Bored Athenians on Twitter at @evil_overload, @vennui, and @shenifonler.  Ennui can also be found combining sentences into coherent paragraphs and kicking other sorts of grammatical ass at http://pennoir.wordpress.com.  Read her words, and heed them well.  We’ll be watching.  The extensive archives will be left online for nostalgic perusal during times of boredom, rememberence, or Twitter outages.

Thanks, y’all, it’s been great!  The Blog is  dead, long live the Blog!
