On Wednesday and Thursday, the Grist editorial team will be at a retreat in our top-secret mountaintop redoubt, plotting world domination. As a result, there will be no Daily Grist and blogging will be light.

We’re discussing the next steps for this little web magazine of ours, which is growing so fast and has so much potential.

So, what would you like to see for Grist? Or more particularly, for my own selfish purposes, what would you like to see for Gristmill?

Where do you want Gristmill to go? What do you want from it? More posts? Fewer? More guest authors? Fewer? Different subject matter? (Less energy, more wilderness? Less global warming, more population?) More avenues for reader participation? More avenues for activism and organizing? An email subscription option? A print-this-post option? Anonymous commenting? A pony?

Think big. Think small. Just think, and let me know what Gristmill would become if you were emperor.
