I still believe that we ALL should be on 4 day weeks but on double pay.

C'n I have your house, then? ;) I suspect the Age of Blogging initiative gave a lot of new(ish) blogs a lot more exposure than they previously had. On balance, I suspect most everyone has MORE readers. Besides, it's your life -- spend your time as you need to. I love blogging, but I'm feeling pressured to post every day (and thus, contrarily, almost not posting at all lately) and unlike a number of other bloggers I'm not that arsed who reads it. It's nice to be read, but (personally) I don't think that should be one's prime motivation, not for a casual blog anyway. Ah crap, that bloody need-roller Melmoth got in ahead of me!

Even though I really had to play games in order to stay informed. It got so bad that I was site lead for EQ2 and hadn't actually played it for months -- I just hadn't had time. The constantly looming deadline for 2-3 articles a day left me no time for anything but writing. I still read your blog, Hudson :)
