Baby steps...

OK, here we go. A toe in the water instead of diving in head first.

I initially heard about blogging many years ago from a dear friend of mine, who always seems to find the cool stuff on the Web long before I do. Tempted as I was to get one going and typical of how I seem to spend most of my time, I was a little too busy with a range of other stuff to quite get my head around it. And it's subsequently taken me 4 or 5 years to get around to starting one.

Nowadays, even The Guardian's in on the game. I guess it's about time. Hopefully, it'll also act as a bit of a tidy-up exercise too for putting together all the various things I do on the Web.

I'll use this blog to collate my various projects, to list updates on them and to also run with the more standard thoughts, discoveries and musings that many of my fellow bloggers use the blogosphere for.

It'll take a little while to get up and running, but I guess that many things take time to grow into something much more than they began as.

So without further ado, here we go, I'm going in...

Nice move, I'll enjoy reading it. read any of mine recently? I'm also slowly coming up with a photo gallery on 'flickr' and a movie gallery on something like 'youtube'. Ever thought of a movie page?

Still getting the hang of this, obviously. I've got your comments but I don't know who you are ('blog author said...', which is not too revealing!).

I've tried to enable comment leaving directly on the site now.

So who thee, stranger?

Nice one - great to see you here at long last! How long before the podcast? You could do a song at the end of each episode. Whaddayasay? Respect for the link too - cheers.

Idleformat: Yes, I know, i took my time. Got here eventually though! I keep an eye on yours of course and will add a link on the side bar when I get the time. Podcasting and movie pages are gonna take a lot longer. After all, blogging came around about 5 years after you first told me about it!

Rowan: Hey, hello! How long's it been? Thanks for finding me here and letting me know about your pages too. All good stuff and I'm particularly glad to be linking back to Brighton whilst out here in Tokyo. Say hi to Ant for me!
