rhythmaningI was just reading Donald Clark on Google’s blog search, and since I haven’t used it before, I thought I’d give it a go. So I go to Google, find the Google blog search option (located on the “more” menu), and, naturally, search for “rhythmaning”.
Come one, what else would I look for?
Needless to say, it found this journal (though I can’t work out why it picked the couple of posts it did – maybe they only index every few days or so).
But I also found an adult blog had linked to my journal. This struck me as very, very strange. The post they were quoting was about art exhibitions during the Edinburgh Festival, and the owner of the blog must have searched on “erotic art” or similar – one of the exhibitions was “Naked Portraits”, and I had commented on the erotic (and otherwise) nature of the pictures and the concept.
It is very odd, and not altogether pleasing, to have been quoted by an adult site; the interweb is a very strange place indeed.

Because we went to see that a couple of weekends ago and I must find what you said about it. Also if it isn't specific to Compton Verney, that might explain the unusually poor captioning of the exhibition.

Used to check them obsessively when I was trying to bea 'proper' blogger, they do RSS feeds and everything. These days I glance every so often.
