I was playing around with the settings on my blog today and I discovered that I started blogging here at Freedom to Differ just over four years ago (since 7 June 2006). For a whole range of reasons, the focus of this blog has evolved over time, as has the frequency and style of posts. But it is has always reflected what has interested and entertained me at any given in point at time. At the moment this blog seems to be having a bit of a resurrection - I'm blogging regularly again and the hits and comments are correspondingly increasing - and hopefully that will continue for some time.
If you have read the blog regularly or even rarely over the past for years, I would like to say thank you. I always appreciate the interest people have shown in this blog, and especially the comments (or more and more today the tweets) on the topics I have been blogging about. Those comments have enriched my understanding and knowledge on a wide range of topics, and have made maintaining this blog so enjoyable. I hope you have also gained something small from what I have posted here over the years.
This wasn't my first blog, and it almost certainly won't be my last, but for a variety of reasons it always be special to me. I'm looking forward to another four years of blogging here at Freedom to Differ.
