Should I become a Blogger4Chris?

Bloggers4Chris logo

I’m very tempted. I’m probably voting Huhne-Campbell-Hughes-Oaten. I came to that order myself, but was then surprised to see that lots of people in the party who I take seriously seem to be jumping the same way.

My views are not set in stone, and there could be much to change my mind. I’ve not seen a single hustings yet, and haven’t spent much time reading material from the candidates.

There are, of course, other people in the party I take very seriously who have taken very different decisions about which way to swing, including, as far as I can see, everyone who has ever employed me!

And I’m also a little concerned about the prospect of my posts ending up being aggregated into a serious website. You, dear reader, will have noticed that my pre-occupations in this arena are seldom political. My wafflings about laundry are not at all suited for sharing with solely political people.

Decided. I shall sign up, but I shall only give them the RSS link for posts categorised as ‘Politics’. And there may well not be any further posts in that category before the close of nominations.

    This is the reason I never joined “Lib Dem bloggers” – I blog too much wibble. Can you do an RSS feed just for one category, then?

    Same reason I never joined Lib Dem Bloggers — but with WordPress and the url munging permalink thing, you can have a feed for every category. Not sure if it works for the php?p=149 style of posting.

    Feed for this category is http://www.alexfoster.me.uk/category/politics/feed

    And I haven’t even updated WP yet!

    Bloggers4Chris doesn’t actually use a feed, but is manually constructed, for just this reason. So, nobody feel shy in joining! 😦

    (When the site is back up 😦 !)
