(Sorry about that!) But we hope that you'll be happy to learn that our excuse for the radio silence is a good one: We've been hard at work on a brand new website, and it's finally ready for launch.

That's right, folks—we've re-designed ReadyMade's online HQ, and the time has come to show it off. So this weekend, that's exactly what we'll do. (Surprise!)

Here's the skinny: We're switching domains (from readymademag.com to readymade.com), streamlining a few things, and adding all kinds of new goodies to our ever-expanding corner of the good old World Wide Web. Please bear with us, of course, as we're sure to encounter a few bugs while we complete the transition, but in the meantime, have fun clicking around our new digs. And don't forget to tell us what you think: Drop us a line at letters@readymademag.com, or hit us up in the comments of our brand new blog!
