“Teemings”, the SDMB ezine, has been labeled as “new” for a decade\* or so. Isn’t it about time to drop that tag?  
I know this isn’t exactly about the message board, but cut me some slack, ok?  
\*OK, a couple of years. Picky-picky.  
Peace,

I believe the proper adjective to describe “Teemings” now would be “Late,” as in no more, ceased to be, expired, gone to meet its maker, off the twig, etc…

Euty called it quits.

But also, maybe the _New!_ label refered not to the newness of the magazine, but rather the newness of the issue’s content.

The “NEW!” refers to the newest – and ultimate – issue.

It has been our policy to leave the “NEW!” banner up for a month after initial publication. It’s due to be removed June 1st.

We will leave the link for teemings on the front page for a while longer, then ultimately we’ll move it to the Archives page.

Hope this straightens everything out for you.

My mistake.  
I only read the feature a couple of times, but found it to be pretty cool. I think I’d have read it more often, but because of it’s location I’d forget about it.  
Gettin’ old, I guess. 😛
