I recently read that the “major problem with actual web diaries is that they are very exclusionist” and that “Public blogs should be reserved for opinion”. The reasoning behind this outlandish criticism was that the readers who have never met the people that are referred to in “diarising” blogs find the whole thing very uninteresting. Well rather than ending my ‘blogs with the personal touch’ (I have no real insight into life and the bigger picture and so talk only about my friends and getting dressed etc) I have decided to describe the people and relationships I often refer to. Here we go:
Sarah(g):

BTW if you go to alnews.blogspot.com it brings you to aljeezera news, which would be (potentially) interesting if I could read Arabic.
