Time zones...

One benefit to living in a different time zone, the more I delve into blog reading, is being able to get up in the morning and read the updated American blogs and then in the afternoon/evening catch up on the blogs from my own timezone. Some of my morning blogs have become a sort of ritual to me. I am following quite a few now after slowly accumulating a collection of ones that interest me.

I have all but given up on using the next blog button because of the number of advertising and "money making" inspired blogs that proliferate the listings. More annoying are the blogs that remove the next blog button from the top entirely. I suppose the logic is that without the next blog button you will somehow be compelled to investigate the content as if there is no escape. It became too annoying hitting the back button to re-click the next blog button.

Recently I have been googling blogspot blogs on topics that interest me. Today has seen too many Harry Potter fans gushing about the last book. Only released such a short time ago... So much for a leisurely read of a treasured manuscript. It seems it was a speed reading contest, with those people who finished first being the winners. I have had enough for today...
