Seven Years of Blogging

Seven years ago tonight I started this blog - on a different platform, with a different name and a different format. In fact, lots is different - very different. But the blog remains the same - my first post is still up.

Speaking of platforms, my webhost provider managed to crash my sites on Monday, and in the process lose Sunday evening's and Monday afternoon's postings. I've recreated them as best I can, but I'm not sure everything is going to be normal, as the provider is still (!) apparently restoring files. So if you see a duplicate or two, I'll catch up.

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
