Dullest blog on MSN

My ‘Dullest blog in the world‘ has received an unexpectedly large number of visitors today owing to an article that was on the front page of MSN for a while today. ‘The 11 lamest blogs on the Internet‘ originally appeared on a website called ‘PC World’ (not the shop we have in the UK) a week or two ago.

I’ve been busy moderating comments – in fact today was the first time I’ve moderated the comments on the site since I moved it onto its own domain at dullestblog.com, so there were about 1800 to do. [Uninteresting aside: 1800 is too many comments for WordPress to display all at once, so I had to use cunning means involving searches for spam words to weed out a lot of the spams several hundred at a time. All terribly tricky, I can tell you.]

Anyway, the dullest blog should now accept comments. It is odd that it is getting all of this attention nearly six years on. I am, by the way, thinking about putting a webpage together that will link to all of the various websites that I run in some way or other, as there does seem to be quite a lot of them now and there isn’t a page that links to all of them. I’ve even got a few yet-to-be launched websites milling around in the background in various states of non-completion. I did have a ‘portfolio’ website but it is out of date and doesn’t work, two reasons not to look at it.

    I think it is great to know that there is soemthing that is still unchanging from 6 years ago…you were very dull then and you still are:-)

    The only problem with being too dull is that people notice you and then you becoming interesting and it is no longer dull…rt of self-defeating…

    congratulations!
    was wondering, with all this new attention, if you’d create a way to link things together…so people could see your other work, too…
    good job then, dave :)

    Are we to take it that for five years or more you haven’t done anything dull enough to record on the dullest blog … ?

    Life’s so dull that it isn’t worth recording, I suppose.
