It’s been flat out…
Friday, July 27th, 2007 at 10:53 pm
Hello - welcome to my website.
On my blog I write about marketing, public relations and digital communications. To keep up-to-date with my posts you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed or sign-up to receive blog posts by email.
Thanks for visiting and I hope you find my site useful.
It’s been almost a fortnight since I last managed to write a blog post - which is pretty much the longest the blog has gone without tending since last Spring.
My days and evenings have been well and truly absorbed by a combination of a big restructure proposal at work, a client website project in the evenings, my CIPR diploma studies and training for a marathon in early September.
My RSS reader is showing just under a thousand unread items. Tonight’s the first time I’ve had to sit down and try to catch up.
Hopefully normal service will be resumed very soon.
[in case you're wondering, the pic is of me having completed a very hilly 10k road race a couple of weeks ago]

Do you ever ‘declare feed bankruptcy’? It would be interesting to compare the habits of people who use different types of feed reader (e.g. offline vs online).

Hi Andrew- it’s tempting sometimes, but I do usually catch up without just marking them all as read. I guess I just spend less time doing so, and am less thorough than I would be with a more manageable number of unread items.
I use a combination of offline and online readers on my laptop, combined with an offline reader on my PDA.
