Have decided to start a web blog as a sort of experiment to see how people reacted to a non-celebs musings :) Does anyone else have one? What do you think about them? |

Maz - Thanks for asking :) I'd forgotten to explain that. Its a bit like an online diary or a personal webpage. You make posts and people comment on them. You can put pictures on it etc. Lots of people use them for keeping friends and family up to date with their lives. I'm using mine as a bit of an experiment into human behaviour :) |

I forgot to mention I've also seen people using blogs to sell products etc. so... they can be used for almost anything! If you type blogger into a search engine you should come across some of the websites that host blogs. They can be quite fascinating :) |

Lyn - yes I know what you mean! I've been thinking about it for a while but in the end decided I have so many random thoughts each day that maybe I should just write about that :) Todays post is about Big Brother and taking an interest in non-celebs. I'm thinking that tomorrow I might write something about instant messages from strangers, but we'll see :) I'm also hoping people write comments so that I can respond to them. |

Can I ask someone a huge favour? I need someone to volunteer to leave a message on my blog to test my new settings. I need them to not be a member of the website as its the 'let anyone post' option I'm testing! Any volunteers please let me know and I'll message you. |
