As regular readers may have noticed, we’ve tried out a variety of design tweaks over the last week. In response to reader requests, we’ve also installed a simple font size switcher toward the top of the right-hand column, which however works only for users of the Internet Explorer browser. Users of Firefox, Opera and most other browsers can alter font sizes relatively easily by executing simple commands from their mouse or keyboards. To enlarge the fonts on a page viewed in Firefox, for example, press Ctrl-+ (“Control” key simultaneously with plus sign).

Our thanks also for the patience of bulletin subscribers: Google Groups took more than twelve hours to deliver many copies of last night’s newsletters, and some users (including ourselves) have run into technical difficulties lately with the Google Groups site. To change your subscription, visit this site (requires Google registration). And should you ever wish to unsubscribe from the newsletter without going on the Web, just send an email from the relevant account to Overlawyered-unsubscribe – [ at] – googlegroups – [dot]- com.

Also: after installing the redesign/rehosting, we got word that our RSS feeds were returning broken links to those of you who keep up with the site that way. We think we’ve fixed that problem now, but if not, please let us know.
