We've been getting letters from worried Pigdump visitors:

"Hey Pigdump, what's going on? You promise Top Quality Content day in day out but lately it's more like every other week? What happened, your venture capital run out?"

"Pigdump...you do this to us all the time. One or two columns a month. And you're even getting lame at those things you know. And the Content Portal is no better. You guys care anymore?"

"Dear Pigdump,
You have always been the trend-setter who saw the trend about to tumble... your first multi-media job was in the company that experienced the dotcom dive long before there was a dotcom boom... then the next place you worked dumped 150 people just months after you left... the next place you went tits-up 6 months after you parted ways. And the most recent 2 jobs you've had...confidential, we know, and we really don't care about them. It's Pigdump we're concerned about. Please tell us the recent dearth of content isn't an imminent death of Pigdump."

Oh you dear Pigdump visitors. The editors will honestly admit to a malaise, a letdown, a dip, a nadir, generally a hitch in the content proceedings. We've seriously thought about caving in, packing up our pixels and taking the off ramp from the Information Super Highway. The high tech online world has us beaten and bothered, we're more cynical than we were during Pigdump's halcyon days if you can believe that.

But never you mind. While we may be sucking the proverbial hind tit these days, our mission is still clear. Pigdump will be around in the dark. We'll be everywhere - wherever you can look. Wherever there's a dumbass internet word like interstitial, we'll be there. Wherever there's a web clown who needs to be ridiculed, we'll be there. We'll be in the way guys yell when they're mad at Bill Gates and we'll be in the way kids laugh when they're promised the next big thing (as if!)

As God is my witness, Pigdump is here to stay. I think.
