hello!
i have a new blog here (http://madeofcarbon.blogspot.com) (link's also in my sig). it's a personal blog with a focus on writing. i'll also occasionally post things i think are cool, like my last post: Things I Less-Than-Three (http://madeofcarbon.blogspot.com/2011/02/things-i-less-than-three.html).
anyways, if you check it out and give me some suggestions or a review below, i'll make sure to do the same for you (that is, if you have a blog needing to be looked at)!

I really like the design of yours and it's good reading as well. I really enjoyed it.
I love that wood background. I did, although, think there were too many pictures. As interesting as they were they slowed my computer down, but other than that I enjoyed your blog. Your articles are interesting. I enjoyed reading your description of the windy day and how it whipped around you every time you went outside. I also noticed you have one more follower than I do right now. It is so hard to get people to follow. Over a hundred people visited my blog today, but only five signed up.
Please review my blog.

Ingvanye--thanks! I appreciate your comments.
Kasi--thanks for your comments! I generally don't post that many pictures, but it's good to know that it slows down your computer. It is difficult to get followers, but I write more for myself than for anyone else. My blog is a space to record who I am and what I'm thinking at this (somewhat peculiar) stage of my life. Anyone who enjoys reading it is welcome to, but it's not necessarily for them. But you're doing better than me! I only had fifteen views today; only one followed. :D
d&f.

I have a super-fast connection, so the page popped right up for me. (Having a fast connection, but tortoise-like brain is a blessing and a curse in the internet age. It means you can see everything! But, it takes a lot of time to mentally digest it all. ;) )
The funky, alternative (is that what the kids call it these days) feel is definitely charming. I love the title. Is there anything more appropriate for a personal blog about life than "made of carbon"? I mean, assuming you're on planet earth, and human. Your writing certainly fits well with the visual theme and title.
And I must give extra brownie points for the Cambridge Footlights alumni, video. :D
