This blog has moved to sj.foodsci.info

Announcement:

This blog has been moved to a new location, named http://sj.foodsci.info, where I have been given space and a little more freedom to make the blog into something better. I still need to test some things out, work out a few setup issues, and so on. There is only one or two posts there at the moment, but the aim is to move all of the posts from here to sj. Of course, “sj” is short for “strider’s journal”. It will take a while to set things up, as I am getting more accustomed to the new digs.

There will be no new postings to this blog.

    I don’t mind your taking links from my blog, and thanks for being considerate enough to ask first.

    You asked me to go to your blog and check out the articles you have. You
    have waaaaaaaaay too many tags! WordPress frowns on the overuse of tags
    and Categories in your messages. I keep mine down to around 10. Your “UK
    #1 Singles” menu is also so long, they go below the window in my
    browser, making the bottom selections impossible to select.

    You requested my opinion, and that is what I have to say…

Many thanks for your constructive comments. I’ve taken them onboard and changed the menu structure to make it easier to navigate. I’ll re-think the tags next.
