[Branch](http://branch.com/?ref=onemanandhisblog.com), a new discussion platform for the interwebs is [out of beta](http://bulletin.branch.com/post/29351108916/welcome-to-branch?ref=onemanandhisblog.com), but not out of needing an invite to get in. Ah, well. Until we *hoi polloi* are allowed in to play, we can gaze adoringly at on-going Branches, like Jim Giles’s one [on long-form journalism](http://branch.com/b/how-will-readers-consume-long-form-journalism-five-years-from-now?ref=onemanandhisblog.com).
