So, after yesterday’s discourse about blogs I don’t like, I’ve been thinking about what I want this one to be…
It strikes me that there are a few basic types of blog:
1) Personal diaries.
2) Lists of links.
3) Comments on news.

Now, I set-up the server at 8.15pm, and the only person I mentioned the site to was my lovely ladyfriend, but already there have been nine other visitors to the site! It took me a moment to work out how the heck they found this, before it hit me. On the Blogger homepage is a list of the 10 most recently updated blogs, and all the hits were round about times I was posting stuff and/or fannying about with the design.

I’ve already forked over my cash. Go subscribe and see why.
