BLOGDOM

What is a blog? Basically, it's an interactive online journal. Just like writing in a journal which you'd keep in your bedside table, but put out for all the world to see. It's made interactive through the use of commenting by others who read it, links to blogs you'd visit, site-meters to check who's stopping by, and the option to post pictures, links or articles.

Blogs are cool! But they can completely take over your life, your internet time, your thoughts. You can get really, really addicted to blogging! So, before you start your own blog - BE WARNED!

I've been blogging since October 2003. It's been a wild ride! It's been the one place where I've made connections with awesome people, where I've gotten feedback on issues or views, where I've learnt a lot from what other folk have to say.

Where can you find my blog? Well, if you want to know, you'll have to ask. If I like you, I'll let you know! :). But have a look at some other blogs in the meantime.
