OctoberLinks-2006
Posted: October 6, 2006 11:11 amFiled under: Linky, Uncategorized
Always on the lookout for something to post, it dawned on me that I am frequently saving links of interesting sites that I encounter during my daily global wanderings on the web. Some of these get sent to friends, and often times I send them to myself via email, just so I don’t forget where I might have found something. So what better use of a blog - post these “interesting” links where I can find them easily.
The plan is to start a new article each month, and add on each new batch of links as a comment. I find it interesting to see the threading of one topic to the next… Feel free to submit your own comments (links) if you run a thread that we might find interesting. We’ll see how it goes. /;^)
