You’ll find the introduction to this series of posts at the top of my first post on net etiquette.
Here’s number 3.

Here is my second plea. Please type a subject when you send an e-mail.
Websites / blogs / e-mails / forums are increasingly a part of modern life. One side-effect is information overload.
There are ways in which people can contribute to the net that help with this. There are ways that do not help. This is the first of a series of short posts that plead for considerate net use. I’m sure nobody is deliberately obstructive in any of the ways I will outline. In which case, people need to point out what consitutes good etiquette and why – otherwise considerate people will continue making cyberspace more difficult to navigate – without realising it.
I get so many bizarre search-engine queries leading to hits on my websites that there are too many to mention.
But one of my favourites has to be the one from today: the person searching for why do pitta breads last so long who ended up on the website for Edible Words
Each to their own!
Yes – but it’s no big deal!
Partly, I can’t quite decide what I like.
Partly, Edible Words is nearly ready to launch, and the colour scheme I chose for myself was converging a little too close to the scheme for that site. My scheme was chosen on a whim. The scheme for Edible Words was chosen quite deliberately (if you’ve been there you’ll know why Burgundy Red and Ripe-Grain Gold were the two colours I went for). So mine was the one to budge.
But I still can’t quite decide what I like, so this may not be the end of it…
I’ve now moved the “sermons” section of my old website onto this new site.
I’ve taken advantage of doing this to get a number of things done:
As promised, this site now has a blogroll on it.
Truth be told, I read more blogs than this. I’ll add more later. But now I’ve got the structures in place, that’s easy.
When I first posted about my new site layout it was a brief post because I simply needed to make the announcement.
I promised more explanation for those who were interested, so here it is.
One hit on the website Edible Words came from a search on live.com.
The visitor was looking for answers to the question Was John Calvin a Mason.
They ended up reading Matthew Mason‘s fine article on John Calvin‘s theology of the Lord’s Supper.
Honestly – who needs fiction?
Just a quick post to state the obvious – I’ve given my blog an overhaul.
Technical details to follow later, but for now please leave me a comment to let me know what you think – especially if you have any problems.
I while ago, I had to turn off anonymous comments, due to the volumes of spam. Now I’ve found a way to implement a CAPTCHA, I’m keen to see if I can have anonymous comments on again.
Bye for now – more later!
