More blogging

Returning to my slice of cyber-space after a hectic week in the real world, I'm pleased to see that I have indeed had some visitors in my absence. And now that I've turned on the comments notification function, I might find out about them a little sooner from now on...

I came to tinker with the settings and add a tag cloud, as well as catch up on the 23 things homework, but I've just spent a frustrating half-hour trying the add the above as a reply to the comments on my previous post. Is this just not possible on Blogger? I just assumed it would be an obvious thing that bloggers would want to do. I tried to just post a comment as a reader, but it wouldn't let me do that either, and deleted what I wrote - I originally pondered the potential value and vanity of blogs a little more, and how they seem a very paradoxical way to communicate, but I can't be bothered to write it out again.

Any comments about comments gratefully received.

Tangled thoughts about blogs

I've dutifully looked at quite a few of the other 23 Things blogs, and made a couple of comments when they've written about non-programme things. At this stage, however, I'm guessing that most of 100 or so blogs are almost identical, and so not the most exciting read.

Then again, neither is this - it feels rather like self-indulgence, both to write when I have nothing to say, and to assume that people are reading it...
