Directions
August 28, 2009I’ve pared down my blogroll instead of increasing it. I read a ton of blogs on my RSS, and I just went through a spring clean before I consider re-blogging here.
I didn’t use any strict criteria, the blogroll is a more personal thing for me. People I consider friends as well as blogs I wouldn’t want to miss reading. And it’s my first port of call. The RSS feeds I save for when I have time. But I still read them.
This is a very personal blog. It’s not going to ever get you big hits if I link to you, so don’t get offended and don’t assume I don’t read you if you’re not up front on the blogroll here.
I’m working on a couple of side projects your links might be better suited to. Or, I might not blog enough here to make it worth noticing!
Nerf the Cat is moving directly to a more personal place. I’ll talk about what I’m playing, watching, thinking. I won’t be upset if you don’t visit, or comment or link to me (except when Spinks doesn’t, cos she has my bond of blood). But bear it in mind.
I don’t have anything that important to say about MMOs and gaming, except what I’m feeling and thinking about it on any given day…
Hurrah! I fully endorse this approach to blogging.

While on the subject of blogrolls, my bugbear is when bloggers dont check to see if the links in their blogrolls are still alive.

Live with it. I like my morbid and/or defunct links, it reminds me of what has been as well as just what is. Maybe I’ll make them a special section though.
by Ysharros August 28, 2009 at 12:22 pmI had a few defunct links, but I only notice them every so often. You’re right, otherwise the old names are like old friends.. I don’t want to throw them out.

As usual, Unwize said it before me and better. (Damn you and your timezone headstart, Unwize!)
by Ysharros August 28, 2009 at 12:21 pmBefore, undoubtedly. Better, err, doubtedly.
by unwize August 28, 2009 at 1:41 pmWoo-hoo! I made the cut! Much love.
Personal blogs are cool – you don’t see them much these days before bloggers have become more invested in topics rather than themselves. I look forward to reading, though – and I definitely need to exchange links with Spinks, whoops.
