I lap up most of the DGJs that come my way.

I agree with a couple of posts:
1. If you want to see something new/different, offer your thoughts directly to the editors;
2. If you want to see something new/different, offer your thoughts directly to one of the contributors (there's a few here) to see if they can turn it into printable copy (I'd welcome any new ideas to try and write into something worthwhile);
3. If you want to see something new/different write it yourself, and submit it with a short letter explaining why you think it's worthy of publication;
4. I'm learning rather a lot from Dig's auction series, and enjoying it. It sounds like it may be about to evolve too; and
5. Not everything I read or see in DGJ is quite my field or up my alley, but I can still appreciate it, still learn from it, and maybe in years to come find it useful.
