Blog Readers

March 29th, 2005 at 12:49 pm by David Farrar

Computer World is complaining that my other activities may prevent me blogging as much as usual, and hence stop providing distractions to their staff.

They have stolen the term uber-blogger from Steven Heath who wants to copyright the term.

The scary thing is, if I do look at hours per week. It is around:

Curia Polling – 30 hours
Curia Other Business – 15 hours
Blumsky Campaign – 15 hours
InternetNZ – 20 hours
Blogging – 15 hours
Sleep – 35 hours
Internet stuff – 10 hours
Other Politics – 5 hours
Girlfriend – 5 hours
Family/Friends – 10 hours
Travel – 5 hours
Gym – 3 hours

And that’s the 168 hours of a week gone. That cloning idea isn’t such a bad one after all!

    If you take the girlfriend with you whilst travelling you could have another five hours. Possibly also able to double up with sleep and gym but we will leave that right there…

    What a nerd you are man! You can get nerd T-shirts from the US with “I’m blogging that” on them you know. Be one of the idle rich like my good self. I love blogging – I’ve got nothing better to do than irritate people.

    This is what happens when you come to Auckland and don’t call in for a coffee first… a public blogging!

    Actually, we weren’t complaining, more concerned that you’d be forced to cut back your ouput. Silly us.

    You’ve got room to improve though – sleeping for 35 hours? What are you? Sleep is for the weak or (as I have a new baby in the house) I could sleep for a week. One or the other.

    Mr Farrar I am envious. How do you manage to get so many affectionate messages from young ladies with new babies?

    I’m a Blumsky fan, well actually I’m a fan of Wellington Central which has been largely neglected by, err, whatever her name is.

    David, I’d gladly assist during the election. If I can be any practical assistance just let me know.

    If Google ratings held authority, you’d be NZ’s uberblogger. http://www.google.co.nz/search?hl=en&q=uberblogger+&meta=

    Yeah the Google ratings are scary sometimes. Like searching on terry schiavo returns my blog in the top 15 which is surprising as so many US news sites and blogs are discussing the case also.

    Ditch the girlfriend. She’s taking too much of your time away from blogging…
