At the 2009 Band of Bloggers event, held during the Gospel Coalition conference, I tried my best to encourage Justin Taylor through public shaming to get off of Blogger and get a domain name for crying out loud (since his blog is like, you know, the #2 church blog in the universe*). Just mere months later Justin has taken my advice** by moving his 23 character "theologica.blogspot.com" address to the 41 character "thegospelcoalition.org/blogs/justintaylor" address. I can't believe there isn't a hyphen or underscore in there.***
*I'm jealous.
**Not really, as you will see if you keep reading.
***I'm pretty sure Justin Taylor is the only guy to ever intentionally lengthen and complicate his web address who will immediately pick up a few thousand readers.
Honestly, great to see a new and much improved Between Two Worlds blog which should also mark the expansion and improvement of The Gospel Coalition website and resources. Looking forward to more.
Steve* you** are hilarious***! :)

Well....I'm wondering where Justin's political blogging goes now.

I imagine it will stay the same, but I dunno.

I'm just bummed you're no longer on his blogroll. That is always how I linked to you. I know, I could just subscribe...

Steve,
It's all your fault!
I can't believe "the gospel coalition dot org forward slash blogs forward slash justin taylor" doesn't just roll off your tongue?!
Thanks for the kind words.
JT

Maybe you should complain to Justin. :)
