Birthday Cake by DeeM

Amazingly enough it’s been one year (yesterday in fact) since I started this blog. Although it never really did go completely as planned - I envisioned contributions from dozens of different bloggers, with a few regulars - I found enough to talk about myself, and for a while built up a little reputation.

Since going back to work, and the associated slowdown on the blog going back a couple of months, things have obviously quietened down, but it’s cool to see how many people do pop up when I get round to posting, and it’s certainly the cream of the commenters

So as you can see, I’ve implemented a few of the recent theme suggestions, thanks to K for the colours, and the pointers and/or past help from RT, Michael, Claire, Brown Baron and the continued visits from Webduck and Madhur whose blogs I don’t visit anything like enough.

I’d Just Like To Thank….

While we’re on the Oscar speech trip, other cool bloggers that I knew before they were famous and who were far too generous with links and Stumbles etc. are Maki (I remember the Blogspot days!), David Airey and Andy Beard.

Bloggers who no longer seem to be with us (hopefully only in an internet sense) include Scott from the excellent, but short lived Savvy Affiliate, Matt , and the recently resurrected Brett at Monetize your blog - thought we’d lost you there!

Then there’s BlogAboutYourBlog where I used to, but just don’t have the time anymore Carol who was one of my earliest supporters and contributers, Kai, and some of the new guys like Stephen and Rhys.

I apologise to all those I’ve forgotten, but I’d like to thank you all for coming - I still get a buzz out of comments all these months on - and I hope it will be worth you visiting for another year.

Hey, I’ve paid for the hosting, I may as well use it
