Nuts 2.0 (including screencasts 1 & 2)

It’s the same Nuts About Southwest, but of a slightly different variety. Some like their peanuts dry roasted, some like them salty. Even if honey-roasted is your flavor of choice, there’s something for you at BlogSouthwest.com.

The blog for Southwest Airlines just turned two, and we are celebrating by bringing the conversation to a wider audience. We know that people engage websites in different ways...
