…there will be a blog update.
OK, at some point I hope to stop posting about how little I manage to post. Until then, here are a couple of spider photos I
took this weekend. I think I’ve changed my mind, and I prefer the black and white one…
Oh, and the thumbnails really don’t do these images justice, so click to see them at a better size.
I’ve made a couple of minor changes that I figured I’d mention here.
I’ve added a new group of links (Photo Galleries) on the right, and I’ve changed the order of some of the other groups of links appearing there.
If you want to see a group of photographs that were originally linked from a blog post, now you don’t have to hunt for the original post to find that link, you can just click on the link in the Photo Galleries category.
I’ve also added a non-Flash version of the gallery of our photographs from Elba Island.
OK, so I’m starting to move things over from my iWeb site.
My most recent post was about attending a demonstration. So, here it is again…
OK, so I’ve not been very diligent about keeping my blog up to date, but I have been busy as usual. (I won’t add the boring details.)
So, on to more exciting stuff.
On October 3, Chiara and I went to a freedom of speech protest, in defence of La Repubblica and associated media, see more info the protest here). Before coming to Rome, all I really knew about Berlusconi was that he was prone to stupid—and widely publicized—remarks, but after learning more about him (Chiara was happy to fill me in), it’s really incredible that someone like that could be allowed to govern. Below is an interesting video on Berlusconi that gives some impression of the crazy state of the current Italian government (unfortunately, parts of it are not subtitled in English, but it’s still pretty interesting).
Anyway, that’s the most interesting thing we’ve been up to lately. I’ve also been playing around with some HTML, CSS, and some new graphics software recently, and I’ve got an alternate that I’ll probably be working on over the next while here.
Today Chiara is off to vote in the democratic party primary, so maybe change is in the air…
Hi! This is my first genuine post. Pretty exciting… OK, maybe not.
The next step will be to find a template that goes well with my main page (either that, or I’ll dive in and change some of the code used to generate the blog pages).
