Merlins War on clutter thread?

Greetings, I found this site after finding "My War on Clutter" in a google search. I joined because I wanted to read the rest of Merlins articles on this subject. Thus far, I can only find the original thread and the numerous comments on it but can not find the rest of the stories/articles/posts pertaining to it. I have belonged to several other message boards and forums but apparently none set up like this one. I did not see a section on how to navigate the site either. If someone could help me find the rest of that thread, I would greatly appreciate it.

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
