It’s been a heck of a year. To cap it all off, we’re releasing a brand new free wallpaper for January. This month’s design is a collection of actual newspaper headlines collected from U.S. and world newspapers. Each headline represents an event that took place in 2009. Here’s a preview:

No matter how busy we get, there’s always time for a free desktop wallpaper. This month’s design is inspired by the Christmas Seals put out each year by the American Lung Association. We’re big fans of tradition, especially this time of year. For over a century, the American Lung Association has been a part of [...]

They work great…until you come to the very first or the very last post. When viewing the latest post, next_post_link() displays nothing; when viewing the earliest post, previous_post_link() displays nothing. This can result in some less than friendly navigation. [...]
