Blogging and Time

I'm a naturally helpful person and I can and do spend many hours exploring and experimenting and reporting what I learn via this blog. I get a fair bit of email from people grateful for my posts here. The downside is the time used is of little benefit to my family unless they read my posts and find them useful.

In an attempt to find some balance, I've added a Donation button to the blog in order to help make it clear to those near and dear to me that this isn't a complete waste of time and that it is worth doing, aside from the caring and sharing that goes into the posts themselves.

I want to spend a lot more time documenting all the things I've been up to the past few weeks that I know many people would benefit from reading. I'll do it anyway, but the odd donation here and there will certainly help me justify the time. Of course no one has to donate anything at all. That's what donating is all about - utterly voluntary. But if you WANT to....now you can. Before, you couldn't.
