For Posterity


In the Beginning, Starting a Blog for the Uninitiated


Wow, just spent the hour between 5 and 6am creating a blog. After the usual hassles with choosing a password and deciding on a memorable, meaningful and easy to spell name, I now discover my blog doesn't exist except in my imagination.

Hmm, maybe I need to publish this to get the ball rolling. So here goes, welcome to my world...

6.18am Feel that I have achieved something and am off to bed for a qld (quick lie down) before my kids rouse me around 7am.

Fast Forward a Few Years

If I do have some advice for you it's think carefully about your labels and try to use them well. Think about what information you will have in the future and create meaningful names which allow your readers to find the information they want fast. This will save you a lot of time reworking the labels later and deleting all the useless ones that you only have one post for.
