About this site:
I blog about a range of different things – often music enterprise, online culture and radio, but also just things that I do, places I go and stuff that I find interesting. It’s not a blog with a topic, per sé, other than what’s going on in my head right at this moment. The blog was started in April 2002 and I’ve written a fair bit over the past decade or so. I’m endeavouring to get better at it. Bear with me…
Here’s a bio that you can cut and paste, should you wish to.
