Thematic Server Hard Drive Grinds Head into Platter in Visually Appealing Pattern (September 8, 2000)
This afternoon, our webserver decided to etch some beautiful lithographs onto the surface of its primary hard drive. Our crack team of art-critics/hardware technicians have removed the stunning piece of art, offered some constructive criticism with a ball peen hammer, and replaced it with a blank-slate/new hard drive. That is, our server crashed hard, but now it's up again. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Code of Silence Broken (June 6, 2000)
Over the last several months, we have released very little news. In fact, we have released no news whatsoever. This is due to our somewhat overdeveloped tendency to hyperfocus on a few projects to the exclusion of standard activities such as letting the cat out, eating a well-balanced diet and letting everyone else know exactly what we're doing. We apologies for the suspense. Here's what's going on:

• We've been working on a bunch of exciting new features, optimisations and bug-fixes for the next few releases of Chroma.
• A Secret Project (In-house development name: "Shh!") is nearing fruition. Details will be released in the next few weeks.
• The Percolation Orb of the Precursors, a powerful though little understood artifact, was unearthed during an archaeological dig in our kitchen.
• Increasingly complex, ludicrous and fun themes are being developed.
