With the help of some friendly comments from Matt, Erin, and German, I am going to try a slightly different approach to this blog. First off, I've redesigned the site a bit to make it faster to download and to make it easier to navigate.
I've also linked my del.icio.us linkroll to my RSS feed.
If that sounds like gibberish to you here's the plain English version: I've put all the interesting links I see everyday on a site called del.icio.us (.us is like .com, or .edu, but cleverer.) It's like public bookmarks, except I get to comment on the bookmarks as well. You can check for yourself any time by clicking on the del.icio.us button in the left hand column of this page. The permanent web address for my del.icio.us bookmarks is: http://del.icio.us/cubemate.
So, if you use a newsreader, you can subscribe to this blog as a feed, which means it will act more like it were e-mail. That way you would only see this blog pop up if something new arrived on it. The technology behind this is called RSS (for Really Simple Syndication.) The easiest reader to use is Google's, and I'd highly recommend it. Click here to find out more.
Anyway, the RSS feed from my blog will have daily del.icio.us bookmark updates. So if you find some of the stuff I dig up interesting, subscribing to my RSS feed on a newsreader will give you a daily dose of what I'm finding out there.
Meanwhile, I'm going to give blogging another try, with shorter posts. Thanks for the encouragement!
