Absence Makes The Heart….
I guess nothing makes a blogger lose credibility with his/her readership more than lack of updates..Or, to put it another way, to disappear without trace
Apologies for that, I’ve been pretty busy professionally, also trying to get to grips with my new found “golf technique”
I guess it’s like guitar, we have to start somewhere
I’ve noted for a while now many websites, particulary blogs, are very slow loading. There’s so much on the home page of blogs these days, even with Broadband, pages take an age to load, IF they load at all…The modern concept of blogging has moved on considerably since the original idea of an online diary. A number of people use their blog to make money, an inspiration for which has to be Google, who offer free services, finances are driven by huge advertising streams. Therefore, the more content one can add to a blog, making it more popular, the more advertising revenue a blogger can sell. That’s the theory.
As to my own blog, I guess writing some posts about myself in between guitar reviews can be considered muddying the water a little, but I feel a blog without a personal input is almost the same as being faceless. After all, on my own site, I can be considered my own boss
Naturally, a big talking point at present in blogging communities is the implications of the recent massive hikes in petrol and oil prices. I made a post in my other blog about that.
Anyway, I’ve some more musicians interviews coming soon, so please stick around for those. For now, a Youtube discovery, my next post is a gorgeous rendition of Schindler’s List by Cyrloud. The film Schindler’s List it took me numerous attempts to watch all the way through, very hard going indeed, I found, about the man who was set to profit from effectively “selling” jew names for labour camps, but ended up saving thousands of lives, and following his death, thousands of people went to his grave to lay flowers of gratitude. The music is heavy with emotion, very suited to guitar, and Cyrlouds interpretation is different to any other I’ve heard, so I am pleased to offer it on my site.
