Dear Darren,

I came across your website after reading about it, in a book, published here in India. It’s amazing to know that, there exists a website as this, to help Bloggers, around the globe, in their Amateurish venture into the world of blogging.

I had a small request; Kindly write something that can help very young bloggers (8 to 16-yr-olds), from getting lost and eventually addicted to weblogs, due to their immature adolescence. Also, a guide for parents as to how can they help their children, by guiding them on informative and knowledge-sharing kind of online atmosphere, giving rise to educational blogs.

Would be eager to hear from you,

Thanks,
Allan.

Engtech is so funny! I’ve only done step 2, but a 9-5 job is really not for everybody…

Is the “Stumble It” icon thingie new, Darren, at the bottom of your posts? Or perhaps I’ve just not noticed it before?
Nicholas says: 02/14/2007 at 4:47 am

Jen, it’s fairly new… I don’t know how long it’s been here at Darren’s site, but stumble it button is fairly new across the board… But, stumbleupon has been increasing in popularity as of late..

Thanks for clearing that up, Nicholas. Glad to hear the button is new – not just my lack of perception at work here!
