Purpose of this blog, first created November 2008:
- Familiarisation with what is ‘now’ on the ‘net
- Experimentation with some of the new widgets/applications
- Listings of useful websites, themed depending on my focus for that day/hour, etc. (I have a wide range of interests and like to experiment).
Built using Google Blogger, although my preferred tool has since become WordPress, this is a great and simple site – starting to miss some functionality I now am used to in WordPress though!
