I couldn’t resist commenting. Exceptionally well written!
Howdy would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re working
with? I’m going to start my own blog soon but I’m having
a difficult time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I’m
looking for something completely unique.
P.S My apologies for being off-topic but I had to ask!
