Will’s Blog

I’ve just had a little chat with Robert Scoble, not much, but a little bit. Noticed he openly invited his readers to add him to MSN Messenger, so I took the opportunity to do just that. And then I decided I’d go read his blog, and noticed this post I’ve decided to write a blog [...]

I’ve finally decided to reupload my old frontpage for this domain — http://will.id.au It’s nothing too fancy, it’s just something that I whipped up just after my exams last November.
