Busy days, and I’ve been redesigning the blog a little, for those who haven’t noticed. I didn’t add the rss-post and the link-post to the rss feed, because it’s more of a ‘behind the scenes’ thing. So if you think there’s something wrong : there isn’t. :)
Here are some good links to get you through the day :
