Your education twist as annabooklover calls it has chimed with me.<BR/><BR/>At my present position on the path I regard the blogoshpere as just another medium, but a medium where there are no impassable barriers (yet), so that anyone sho's prepared to put a bit of effort into it will get quick rewards.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6656468.post-1147988449942164252006-05-18T22:40:00.000+01:002006-05-18T22:40:00.000+01:00Excellent post.

I'm a research scholar without a university job, subsisting on small grants and waiting for the Boomers to retire.<BR/><BR/>Nobody outside my family cares if I get out of bed in the mornings or not, but a fair number of people worldwide would notice if I quit blogging. That's worth a lot to me.Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05799391349111994914noreply@blogger.com
