Ya'll might notice that Epic Recs looks *very* different than it did yesterday.  I personally loved the old layout, but unfortunately it didn't have an automatic tag list on the sidebar and, since Mei and I spent all of last week tagging *every* *single* *entry*, we really needed something flexible enough to handle a long and ever growing list of tags.  Thus, the new layout.  Let me know if there's any improvements you'd like to see in the color or presentation as I'm still tweaking this week.  After that, I anticipate a looong stretch before any more major changes.

The good news: we now have every entry tagged for fandom, length, pairing, and (best of all) genre!  It's lead to some interesting results:

Top five fandoms by number of recs:
The Sentinel (32)
Stargate: Atlantis (32)
Due South (22)
Smallville (17)
Highlander (16)

Top five genres by number of recs:
Angst (88!)
AU (44)
Humor (34)
Hurt/Comfort (24)
Fluff (23)

Length: (these made me very happy, as I've feared that I hadn't been able to find enough epic stories to justify the comm's name)
Epic (72) huzzah!
Long (48)
Medium (32)
Short (7)

And now I must go and continue to pimp fanficfinder, *sob*.  Next time I decide to start a new comm?  Stop me.
