Was just having a conversation in Data yesterday when I realise that reading this blog I would have thought I was still in Beijing and was (impossibly) watching presidential debates next to Tian'anmen or something ...
Thing is, I'm in London, and I'm reminded everyday by the rain (okay, these two days have been good, yesterday was exceptionally bright, sunny ... cold ... ok let's not go on). And the thing also is, that until recently I did not have a reliable inhouse Internet service. In fact even now it's not so reliable, but my downloading speed reached a magical 150KB today. Erm, it's all relative aint it, since when did 150KB become magical ...
The other thing that was happening is, I was moving my blog. I am moving my blog (I notice a tense situation in the last ten words) ... after half a year here at Blogdrive. It has got better and better, and I hate to go. But I hate to turn down djourne's repeated invitations ... So, as Data quips, "media consolidation proceeds apace". For a little while I will be double posting, while I move everything over, and while the two people who read my blog update their bookmarks to
http://tausarpiah.djourne.net.
I hope to move everything over by Nov 2nd, in time for my planned (and a million others have also planned) live-blogging of the elections in USA, since I've got CNN in my room (!! I hope TV Licensing hasn't resorted to ransacking blogs ...) ... but till then ... it will be as confusing as Iraq and US opinion polls ...
