And it’s back to English, with a different perspective
This must be the third or fourth time I am flip-flopping this personal blog from English to German and back. It had pretty much laid in ruins for some time, not least due to Twitter. It’s so much easier to fire off a few short lines, and I am doing all the firefighting blogging over at FWnetz, in German.
I’ve been thinking long and hard about what to do with this blog, which I really didn’t want to die off. The solution only came to mind recently, at least it feels like it is worth a shot.
So, besides all things related to internet and photography, I’ll be focussing on firefighting too. Throughout he past few years, I’ve met so many interesting fellow firefighters around Europe and in the States, and there is more than a handful of online contacts too. Here’s a bunch I visited in Kardaun / Südtirol (Italy) to participate in a tunnel emergency practice:
So I know there’s a keen interest on happenings here in Germany, which I intend to write about, and perhaps, this blog can even serve as a hub for information exchange. First things first.
There’s also a technical motivation, as both FWnetz and this blog run on Wordpress, I should be able to test out a few things here before I start implementing them over there. In case you’re interested, the theme in use is White Space by Brian Gardner, who also created the Revolution Magazine theme in use at FWnetz.
There are still a few tweaks to be done, like getting rid of the green image border, but this is mostly set, so I’m ready to go. Over the next few days, I’ll slowly start updating my blogroll too. hooray :)
