Various Bits of
News
24/02/09 08:09
Been a while since the last blog so this one is to do a
bit of catching up.
Firstly, I’ve decided to put this blog back as
the Home page. It makes sense that people see my
most recent bits of information on first entering
the site.
I’ve also been developing some Twitter
content with
icklestories and
icklememories. The former
I’ve mentioned before - a place where I can
put fictional thoughts without causing
confusion on my main ickledot twitter. This
has led me to starting a new
website using
Weebly. I really like the
simple format of this online web tool - and
I’m a sucker for a site that looks friendly
and … well … cuddly. Weebly is still in its
developmental stages and its creators say
they have many more ideas to improve
functionality. I’ve also put a page of
icklestories on this site, mainly to take
advantage of the
Stacks plug-in for
Rapidweaver described
previously.
icklememories is just something created on
a whim. Might work, might not. Every so so often
a jingle or lyric or bit of information comes
into my head, or is heard and I thought it might
be quite good to place these nuggets of pure
nostalgia online. Might just kick-start a series
of recollections for someone out there. We’ll
see.
Also enrolled on a writing course at the
Media Museum in Bradford.
Bit unfortunate that the first session
clashes with another meeting but I hope to
get there in time to discover what it’s all
about. It’s fantastic to have the national
museum of media so close but as is human
nature, when something is so convenient the
tendency is not to take advantage.
