Yeah, it’s definitely not the perfect medium, and that’s why I felt I needed a calendar as well(though can’t seem to find the perfect one, so not !00% happy with that either).

Then there’s always the thoughts about what to write about and what not, and the guilt(daily!) of writing about only ‘mainstream’ events, well, in the individual posts at least.
How I would love to cover everything… all the local music gigs, regular (weekly/monthly) organised events, art exhibitions, community theatre… it’s just impossible. I’ve though of making it a group thing, but I can see it getting very complicated…

So I guess what I’m doing now is working, but it’s not precisely what I had in mind when starting out!

Now, about your blog. I don’t spend much time reading/knowing about many things politics(again, guilt about that too), but some of your thoughts are often what flash through my head(but I don’t know enough about the subjects to know if what I’m thinking makes sense at all), and so it’s great to read thoughts from someone who (seem to :D ) know what they’re talking about, and links to things that back it up (not that I usually have time/inclination to click on those links(guilt again…), but just the fact that they’re there…)
Anyway, I believe the above paragraph doesn’t make much sense, so I’ll stop now!!!! My point is I like your blog, and I acually like it short and to the point, as (as bad as it is), I probably wouldn’t read it if it were much longer….
Me, insecure and often confused? Never!!!! :D

And I wouldn’t be worried about facts vs. opinion — you’ve developed your own writing style which is just as blog-worthy as any other.

When you started with Enjoy Perth I was a bit sceptical that a blog was the right format for that kind of info, but you’ve done a really good job with it! It is now the first place I visit when wondering “what shall I do this weekend?” :-)

Funny that you didn’t know Karen was from WA! Her’s was one of the first blogs I discovered (I think through the Bloggies), and even though she doesn’t have an rss feed, I like it so much I actually remember to check it every so often(though my memory is so bad, I sometimes forget for weeks! :D )
