Absence Note

Sorry, still busy. Instead, go read Hot Topic’s examination of the NZ climate change denier legal action against a govt. funded science centre. (Part 1) (Part 2) Or Sonal’s spirited attack on the Bechdel Test. Other suggestions welcome in comments.

Why am I here?

The illustrious David R, proprietor of additiverich.com for most of the last decade, is pulling down the blinds. I have migrated over here to isprettyawesome.com, which is run by Svend – who is, happily, another member of the additiverich.com posse. So I gotta thank Svend for generously welcoming me to his isprettyawesome crew. And I [...]

I’m pretty awesome

So here I am, in my new digs at isprettyawesome.com – hosted by the lovely Svend. And it’s all pretty good so far.

Ghost Posts

Sidebar Update

Helen pointed out that I’ve turned up in one of the NZ blog ranking lists at #51. How odd. This news prompted me to do an update of the sidebar for the first time in about two years… lots of changes there, some blogs on hiatus have been pulled down, a bunch of new ones [...]
