Soft bloggers

In the morning, when I don't snooze too much and can find what to wear in less than twenty minutes, I manage to arrive at a reasonable time at Trône underground station to find and grab a copy of the metro.

From time to time, I also take the Dutch copy in view of brushing up my Flemish. I have noticed that, in the two linguistic versions, the various articles are on different pages and some topics can't be found at all. French and Flemish speaking people must have divergent interests and opinions, so what else is new here in Belgium?

Today, this article made me realise the blogosphere is much wider than I thought, and reading its last line, I immediately thought of a 44 year old I know. I wonder whether SHE who hates exclamations marks knows about it.

Micro-Soft blogging? Not my cup of tea, I'm afraid. I like it here. It's quite cosy, the template matches my lino and curtains, making me feel pretty much at home. I wouldn't change a single thing, I don't want a fancy counter or any other featured gadget, I like to keep it simple.

Spaces dot live dot com might be attractive for you readers who think about joining in. So why don't you have a try at Blogger first?

Everyone is welcome right here, in my own soft space.

Dear Vida, you ought to be my first guest. I give you the floor.

I don't think they mean me - just a random person, I think.

What a coincidence then, but how many women of that particular age (mine too, btw) were awarded the title of Best European Blog For Three Years Running - Bloggies 2005, 2006 and 2007, mmm? Zoe, I think you have become a kind of blogger archetype, no less.

Il s'agissait d'élire le meilleur blog européen, il y avait plusieurs catégories. Rebelotte, on votera encore cette année.
Aha, ce cher Ursus... j'ai déjà vu ces photos quelque part, j'en mettrais la main a feu. Spaces n'est pas neuf mais du nouveau s'annonce. Tu m'en diras des nouvelles, n'est-ce pas?
