Hey faithful OaM readers,

Because its the holiday break, and everyone is back home (meaning they are submitting less), we’re reducing the amount of quotes we’re putting up during the holiday break to one per day. We’ll be back to full output on January 3rd. As it is right now, we’ll be posting one per day, every day, at 6pm.

Some other updates:
* We added tagging, so that you can browse quotes of a particular genre (sex, alcohol, NewRez, editor’s picks, etc.). Each entry is tagged at its end, and theres an index of tags towards the bottom of the sidebar.
* We expect T-Shirts to be available in January.
* If you have any questions/comments/ideas, feel free to email us at info@overheardatmcgill.com.

In the mean time, happy holidays, and thanks for (eaves)dropping by.
