So den Beste has called it quits. This, of course, not long after Michele decided to go on hiatus as well. Crud.

I always looked forward to a den Beste column. They were thoughtful and thought-provoking, designed to make the reader think about issues rather than simply emoting over them. Even the columns on topics that I had little interest in(Anime comes to mind) were a delight to read. Sometimes, the writing sparked some interest in me where none had existed. I've actually considered checking out some of the Anime series that den Beste has mentioned. Trust me: that would be big change for me.

So Rachel Lucas left permanently for a while, recharging her batteries as it were. Here's hoping that Steve den Beste comes to a similar conclusion: take a break, but don't retire. The blogosphere needs you, or someone like you. For however long you're gone, you will be missed.

Harvey says no one can quit cold turkey from "blog-crack". Here's hoping that he's correct.
