Blogroll Update

Posted in Uncategorized, Uncategorised

...is now done. There are a lot of new blogs added to the leftish and centrist categories. 15 new leftish links and 4 centrist ones. It's interesting to note how many of the new blogs are written by women and also by people in their 20s. As opposed to us thirty something blokes, I guess. Another common factor in people's biographies is that there are quite a few lapsed Catholics, quite a few ex-student politicians and quite a few former party members.

Please feel free to report any broken links in comments.

ELSEWHERE: The debate about blogs, awards and politics continues at James Russell's place.

UPDATE: I've also added Stack to the 'specialist blogs' category. It's a book blog owned by Georg of Terminological Inexactitude fame. I'm inclined to agree with her tagline, "There's more to life than books you know, but not much more." Additionally, I've linked there to Amanda's music blog Flop Eared Mule - country music with a Sydney focus.

    Mark, the first in will what could become a long stream of corrections - anyway could you update my URL (from http://www.ozpolitics.info/cgi-bin/blog/blog.pl to http://blog.ozpolitics.info/) Thanks.

  2. Mark Bahnisch

    Done, Bryan.

  3. Zoe

    Oh, look if we're being fussy, can I be all lower case?

    Cheers

  4. Mark Bahnisch

    No probs, Zoe.

    While you are in there tinkering, can you move me from the dearly departed mblog to my new digs at http://www.rowen.id.au/blog/ ? Muchos grazias

    Oh - Mark. In the spirit of anonymity, would it be possible to update the discription of AnonymousLefty without mentioning my real name or occupation? I've got to be a bit more circumspect about those now. Thanks mate.

  7. MrLefty

    Description, sorry.

  8. Georg

    Cheers Mark, much appreciated. Stack's tagline is stolen from a Smiths song! Handsome Devil I think.

    Just letting people know I'm emailing them privately when I've made requested changes rather than crowding this thread with repeated notifications.

    The increased number of lefty blogs reflects the increasingly leftist leaning of this blog.

    At least I can usually get an argument here if I want one, and haven't been banned yet.

    About Sweden if nothing else, EP.

  12. Evil Pundit

    Why haven't you linked any Swedish blogs? Perhaps your commitment to the Evil non-Empire is not as sincere as you would have your Nordic masters believe.

  13. Mark Bahnisch

    Which are your favourite Swedish blogs, EP?

  14. Darlene

    Thanks for that.

    It's interesting to be described as an ex-student pollie. Bloody pathetic one, I can tell you.

    Good to see more girlies-wirlies getting into blogging.

    Cheers

    Oh no big deal Mark but it's 'straitjacket' (I misspell it myself sometimes too). And thanks for the link loving.
