I’m actually not quite sure exactly when this happened (I subscribe to the RSS feed and haven’t been to the actual site in months), but The Loop, written by Jim Dalrymple & Peter Cohen, has changed from a traditional news blog to an article and link list posting blog…..and I like it.

I’ve enjoyed The Loop ever since it started, but I’ve avoided the website because of the numerous ads spread across the old design plus an occasional Dragon Naturally Speaking pop-over ad that I had to stop and clear just to keep reading an article.

They’ve also gone with simple sponsorship funding and a single Fusion ad. Sponsorships seem to be sold out through December so here’s hoping the new format works out for them.
