  • Blogging...a few thoughts.

    I've been blogging for eight months now, updating my blog at least daily - twice most days. I seem to have about fifteen visitors each day and thirty pageviews, except for when I'm hit by an occasional spamming attack and have registered up to nine hundred pageviews.

    I don't know if it's basically the same fifteen people who keep visiting my blog or whether different people visit only once every few days; I'd like to know. It would also be interesting to know how many visitors I receive from external sources; and where they come from...unfortunately the stats on this site are very basic - we have been promised they'll be improved though.

    I'm really enjoying the blogging experience; I spend quite a lot of time reading, and sometimes commenting on, people's blog (not only on this site) and surfing the net looking for interesting things to post.

    Generally I would say that blog.co.uk is a small, friendly site; yet there are a few people who insist on trrying to use the site to promote their products and services by multiple posts and spamming comments - but fortunately they don't seem to stay for long.

    Overall, blogging is a thoroughly enjoyable, creative and participatory experience that I'd recommend to anyone (and have done.)

  • Some rollerskating terms.

    I think these are rollerskating terms, but they might be skateboarding terms...I can't remember.

    Acid Drop
    Acid Grind
    Acid Rain
    Brainless
    Nose Pick
    Porn Star
    Soul Grind
    Spine Ramp
    Goofy Foot
    Stalefish Grab
    Crooked Grind
    Feeble Grind
    Nosegrind

    I reckon these terms could just as easily be associated with drugs culture, or even be the names of rock climbing routes.
