Welcome

"You're very opinionated" a scouse job candidate once said to me during an interview. Whilst this may be true, it's not the kind of thing you normally say in an interview and my opinion was that he wouldn't get the job which, needless to say, he didn't.

One side effect of being opinionated is the need to share your opinions with other people, hence the blog. I don't really care if anyone reads the blog but just having somewhere to say things will be nice, especially somewhere where no-one answers back and I can't be told that my opinion is wrong and yours is much better.

My first blogging attempt was on Yahoo360 but thats now been closed down. Unfortunately, I ignored all the email warnings to back up my blog before they took it off the air and now I've lost those memorable accounts I made whilst in America. Now I've decided to use a Google related product hopefully it will be more stable.

I've been moving a lot towards Google recently. Maps, adwords, iGoogle etc etc. I'm even using Chrome to write this blog. I wonder how long it will be before Google are the new Microsoft and everyone hates them as much as they hate Microsoft now? I give it 2 years.

Anyway, as this is an introduction it's already far too long. I only wanted to write something so I could see what the blog looks like so I'll say goodbye for now and think about what to write about for my first true blog.
