WOW

Blogger seemed to be down for a little while just now…. I don’t think it was me…..

Anyway, while I waited for it to come back, I remembered hearing that Google Earth is now available for the mac. It’s really quite rare for my jaw to genuinely drop: this thing is phenomenal. My iBook seems to cope with it pretty well too.

Two of my three homes aren’t even covered in high res yet, but this did little to curb my amazement; apparently they’re adding images all the time.

Here goes….

Well, I’ve got a blog. Been pondering it for a while, and since it’s free I decided to stop pondering and… start recording my ponderings :o)

I was impressed by the look of Blogger and immediately attracted by the fact that it has to do with the wonderful Google people. I might have been deterred by the unavailability of my preferred user name, along with several others I subsequently tried. Despite this inconvenience, the apparent popularity of the place was encouraging.

So, welcome to my blog.
