Simon’s Space → slog

This blog has all but ground to a halt, so I’m moving.

I’ve started a “tumblr”, a micro-blog, at slog.job.id.au.

Why a tumblr? It’s much easier to post videos, photos and links, and that is what I’m more likely to want to put on a blog at the moment than long posts.
Why “slog”? Simon’s bLOG… get it? I dunno, needed a name.
This site will remain but the RSS feed of this site will now get the posts from slog.
