Welcome The Local readers! For those who don't know what I'm talking about:

(preserved here as a trophy

; thanks Anthony for the shoutout, and
Scienta for telling me!)
Wow, what started off as a side project a few months ago has certainly grown a lot! I'm actually in the process of completing a fairly different new theme for it (I'm getting bored this one frankly, and the structure and
markup behind it isn't awesome). But given now I know some really like this one, I'm not sure what to do...maybe I should incorporate some of the bits in this theme in the new one.The new one, without giving too much away, has an even simpler design and is more intuitive. Choices, choices, choices.
The Local, covering Australian blogs, and its accompanying
blogs.com.au Australian blogs search engine are worth checking out too. I'm loving these initiatives to draw the Australian blogging community together. There are some 'in the flesh' meetups going on in Melbourne too - the recent
MODM 1 (which I unfortunately missed) and the upcoming TBA
Melbourne Webloggers meetup. It's a great way to network I reckon - the fact that Anthony found me via a blog comment was pretty cool.
Anyway, hope you guys find something useful here amongst my ramblings!
