Forum Bloggers?

Post by Lulu76 »

I have been following Robin's "Great American Things" blog with great interest, and I thought it might be a good time to do a forum blog roll.

If you're a blogger (or like to pretend to be one like I do) and would like to share the link with everyone here, please do it in this thread.

A lot of folks seem to be getting away from blogging, so I need new things to read. Not to mention that I need to get back into it. I've posted two days in a row, so maybe I can get back into the hang of things.

If you're interested, my blog is at: http://ljrichards.blogspot.com

I have a blog, as many of you know (I get a lot of traffic from my forum tag), but it's not St John related and very loose in format. I like to blog about green tech, rural broadband, politics, wacky news stories. Nothing is off limits and I try to inject a bit of humour into everything. Life is too short.

Lately my posts have fallen off to a trickle. I've been more into just sharing news stories infused with my own quippy comments, on Facebook. I'm thinking I may get back to blogging and just have the links post on Facebook etc...We'll see how that goes.

I too would like to see some more Forum members blogs. I read Pipnale's blog often (highly recommended if you have a need for a good belly laugh) and also several of the more popular St John blogs. I prefer reading blogs by RSS feed in Google Reader.

What are you reading/writing? I'll be happy to check it out!
Still waiting to return to St. John!

I mentioned this in another thread today - we have a food porn blog of sorts. Started as a joke for a couple of friends back in December, but we do still update it. Nothing more than food porn (and a recipe if requested). Not exactly exciting stuff ;)

I'll bite. I have a blog that I update sporadically. It was intended to be a regular thing, but oh well.

Lulu, great idea for a thread. I couldn't open your link either, looking forward to seeing what you're up to. Cid, I hope you get back to it, too. I spent some time browsing yours, and it's very interesting. Eclectic, just as you promised. And I'm going to have a good time reading the Clever Nomad, looks great.

I hope this thread continues, I'd love to see what my fellow forumites and bloggers are doing.

In case anyone wants to catch up with Great American Things, I just posted No 108: The Twilight Zone. The day before was No. 107: The Far Side. A lot of fun, hope you'll stop by.

I liked the food porn, that was yummy.

I think I've seen Robin's "Great American Things" blog before, but just in case, a link would be nice...lol.

I thought the Clever Nomad was a good read as well. Keep those blogs coming!

Whoops, I'm slipping! Since Anthony asked for personal Web addresses to be removed from signatures, I'll have to pay more attention.

I'm glad I came back here. I had put the correct address in my original post, but it wouldn't make it into a hyperlink for some reason.

So now it's a hyperlink, but it's not the correct address.

I'm a mess.

Anyhow, try again, although it's boring right now. I am debating making it private at least for the time being due to an unfortunate incident, but I am not sure yet. Too much of a hassle.

Cid's check will be in the mail soon.

Yes...I infrequently update http://www.nogooddaddy.com

I've been posting more to my FB page lately.

though...and this is bound to fail rather quickly...I'm considering posting daily once the baby comes. 2 reasons: it will take discipline I don't have and I'm thinking of it as a sort of gift to the kid. Because, I'm sure she'll want 365 entries of:
I pooped
The kid pooped
Then I played with myself and went to sleep
