Another usability site bites the dust

One of my beloved sites, http://www.webword.com has simply sunk without any explanation. No posts have been made in months. Does anyone know what happened?

Could JOS readers suggest other sites to get good usability-related links?

A lot of people are concerned about what may have happened to John Rhodes and I hope that he is OK and will re-surface when he feels able to.

Perhaps his Thesis is keeping him busy?

Wait, no, the Thesis post is from some other guy.

Chris and I were also contributors to the site and all I know is that John had some screw-up with MovableType, the CMS that runs the site. After that, he has been totally incommunicado and my MT login doesn't work any more.

Like Chris, I too hope John is OK and will restart the site soon.

I hope John can return to the blogging world in 2004. Along with JOS, Webword was for me the site that demonstrated how much useful content there is on the web.
