Dalai lama, cards and murder

Ed the Editor's personal blog corner


I read some inspiring posts by Peter, a master of thought over at Necessary Skills. Peter explains how, as a younger man, he read that the secret to life is to be happy - but it seemed too simplistic. His doubts sent him on a lifetime journey to find a more substantial answer.

After years of fruitless searching, he eventually went back to the first answer and has lived happily ever after. That will teach him to ignore the Dalai Lama.

Whist and murder

Different styles of blog

Ed the Editor's personal blog corner



Communication has one purpose - to convey meaning to others - but when you blog, you need to remember a couple of points else your point is lost.

Writer guidelines say: Did you know that 79% of web users scan the page instead of reading word-for-word? That people read from computer screens 25% slower than from paper? Or that web content should have 50% of the word count of its paper equivalent?


Communication comes in many different forms in blogging

This parrot is dead.

Ed the Editor's personal blog corner


A friend used to have a parrot, and it was a bastard that used to peck everyone whenever it was allowed to fly around the house. To make life somewhat bearable, they let it free in the loft, out of harm's way, then coaxed it down when it was time for bed. (btw, I would peck too if I was that intelligent and sentenced to being kept in a loft and a cage for most of my 50 years on earth.)

Gordon the goat

Ed the Editor's personal blog corner



I was laughing my head off at a documentary piece on Gordon, a billy goat held as a pet in a suburban English garden. He was big, even for a billy, and his owner was a pint-size quintissentially English woman.

internet, Pisstakers. The 10 blogs captured at 11.04 in the MyBlogLog widget in my sidebar yesterday received a masterful one liner review from Yours truly, Ed.
