My soul is worth £8954. Which means that 82% of the people I see around me have a purer soul than I. Dang it.
Until one is committed there is always hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness. Concerning all acts of initiative and creation, there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans. That the moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising to one’s favor all manner of unforeseen accidents and meetings and material assistance which no man could have dreamed would come his way. Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.
Johann Wolfgang von Goëthe
It is websites like these that demonstrate that the web is immediately informative.
I started to surf the internet in June '97 and Yahoo! was probably the first page I hit.
As you may or may not know I have been tinkering with a personal blog for the last couple of months.
One of the most interesting features I have come across is the newsreader and how effective it is to use one of these to pull information to you the surfer rather than having to go and get it yourself.
I am using the beta of the FeedDemon news reader as I particularly like the auto-feed capture, and a few more are mentioned in this article above.
This subject has a great relevance, particularly in providing the reader/visitor with regular news and information.
We went to visit our friends Gordy and Sophie at The Goat Shed in Moulin, Savoie.
We all had a fantastic time and I am still missing the place a week and and a half later.
I'll just have to go again then, won't I!
Please feel free to check out some photos of the trip.
I have been selected as a beta tester by Six Apart for their new product called TypePad. As you can see this product is a very automated version of their successful Movable Type cms.
So, to put this to the test I am going to use it to record our recent trip to the Alps. I also intend to set it up as the point of record for our new Book Club and the tomes that we read.
Please feel free to wander all over the site and try to use as many of the links and functions as possible.
