Please join me in requesting Disney Online to offer Jeff Kurtti something like a straightforward, sensible space to blog in, where his fans can subscribe and be informed of any new posts, and not have to scour Disney Online to find the touching, interesting things that he has written. There is a demand for his writing, even if Disney Online is not sufficiently aware of that.

A Drunken Odyssey Petition

Jeff Kurtti is a long-standing historian of Disney’s culture. With works such as Since the World Began: Walt Disney World: The First 25 Years, Walt Disney’s Imagineering Legends and the Genesis of the Disney Theme Park, The Art of Mulan, and many others, the prolific Mr. Kurtti has become an author whose work is much beloved by Disney readers.

For a little while now, he has been writing a Disney history blog called The Wonderful World of Walt for Disney Online. Recently, however, Disney Online decided to discontinue this blog. Presumably, this cancellation was due to low click numbers, but the blog never had anything like an easy-to-find banner, or a sensible blog-layout to look through previous posts by subject, or (and this is key) a way to subscribe to the blog.

Please join me in requesting Disney Online to offer Jeff Kurtti something like a straightforward, sensible space to blog in, where his fans can subscribe and be informed of any new posts, and not have to scour Disney Online to find the touching, interesting things that he has written. There is a demand for his writing, even if Disney Online is not sufficiently aware of that.
