If you're looking for the perfect (albeit late-arriving) Christmas gift for the history- and/or politics-minded individual in your life, or simply for yourself, I cannot recommend this collection of essays highly enough.

Part of that is making sure bird site isn't a place where you provide free content anymore.

But if recent changes mean you want birdsite to affirmatively die, you'll need to do both.
