The Random Post

Just a reminder to my regular readers. When you do not see much activity here, feel free to check out my tumblelog – The Random Post.
There you will find cool links, photos, quotes, funny words and odd angles. Basically, it is all the little snippets that catch my attention while cruising the interwebs and is far less structured than the posts here.
If you do check it out, and you enjoy it, I would love to hear your feedback. Heck, I would love to hear your feedback even if you don’t.
