I have a gripe, and it's about me. I'm too slow. I can't handle all the gripes coming into the GripeLog, and it means that some that deserve attention never get posted. So we're going to try an experiment: Live Gripes.

Jeff Foster, my webmaster and progeny, has suggested we take advantage of the "diaries" feature in the Scoop weblog engine we use on our site to permit readers to post new gripe stories directly. Of course, readers can already post comments on any of the stories that I post, but in the Live Gripes section you'll now be able to post a story yourself to initiate a new topic. That'll help get around the bottleneck that is me.
As readers start posting their stories, you can read and comment on them in the Live Gripes section. To post a story yourself, first log into your posting account and then go the Live Gripes posting page. If you don't already have a posting account for the GripeLog, you can create one here-- it's free to register and only takes a minute.
So let's give it a try. Please try to keep your gripe short and to the point, but give us enough of the basics so your fellow readers can respond to your issue. Of course, we reserve the right to remove any stories we consider inappropriate, but as much as possible we will try to leave it up to readers and their comments to show us which stories they think deserve attention.
