Lankes Launches New Website

My old homepage was about 4 or 5 years old. A lot has changed in that time, both on the web and in my life. This new site takes advantages of these changes, and hopefully, makes it easier to get to the information you need.

Some new features of the site include:

New navigation
The ability to comment on the news and stories
More syndication options (RSS)
More content, including greatly expanded research and teaching statements
New login feature where I can post special information for colleagues
While I still have some blog entries to migrate from the old site, all the other information you could get from the old site is here. Take a look around, and let me know what you think.
