Blog & roll baby!
While on holiday in the summer of 2003 I decided to start a website containing short & quick demo reviews, and articles spotlighting certain groups.
While on holiday in the summer of 2005 I decided not to wait until I finally had the energy to create the site myself, but use a free blogger instead.
The result: http://thedarkcourt.blogspot.com
Only an introductionary article and one review (Forgotten Bytes/S451) so far, but more will follow .. |

Nafcom, naah, it was just one of the few templates that I liked, although I prefer the one I use for my other blog (still considering just using the same template for both blogs).
I hope to add at least one more review today - my c64 died (Ben: it wasn't just the vic chip I guess) but I managed to make a new one out of 2 old ones (I'm so proud of myself) so I can use my rr-net to transfer stuff instead of the tedious xe1541 way (for some reason rr-net doesn't work with the c128 I was using temporarily).
Next review is of the Chorus demo, by the way ;) |

I knew that it was a template. So it was a joke :) |

I tried to, but I forget to remember constantly.
Anyway, another review added. Whoop-whoop! |

Sure, although I prefer reviewing the back-catalogue of a group (for http://thedarkguide.blogspot.com instead) |

Hey, I've updated the blog several times since I last posted it here .. and for the last update I almost didn't get any reactions, so excuse me for not thinking people are actually still caring ;)
(which is a good thing, otherwise I would feel forced to actually write new reviews -> and I''m too lazy for that).
And Visual Delight 3? It will come baby, it will come!! If not in this lifetime, then the next .. |

Getting no reactions on your blog is something you'll have to live with; ppl agree with you and don't think it's worth to put that in a comment.
