this happens a lot to me, lately:
i’m the "thinker type" of person, and i do think a lot. (the second half sounds so crappy and presumptuous, i had to add it! ;-))
everytime my intense contemplation yields a result - like another landmark decision, or just a little "a-ha" about certain phenomenons interacting - it doesn’t take long until i read about that same topic (with about the same attitude) on somebody else’s blog.
i am reading some blogs regularly, but not too many. and this effect only takes place on a small number of blogs.

this could either mean that we’re all just "thinking in circles", with the same questions and basic fears rising again and again.
OR there are some people out there who are very very much like me, sharing my thoughts and arriving at the same conclusions as i am.
if so, there’s a lot i can learn about myself by just reading what they’re up to...

i can finally check something off my website-related to-do list:

i’ve successfully tested and activated my new image search script. this should be especially useful for all of you who are looking for images they found through google...
the script’s core was "borrowed" from the built-in wordpress search-feature, which handles multi-word queries very, very efficiently.

 
something else: i just added this link to the right menu-bar of the blog. apparently it’s a trap that catches spambots (the email address collecting type). or, as the folks over at spampoison.com like to say:

E-mail collecting robots will be sent in an infinite loop and will get dynamically generated fake e-mail addresses, adding enormous quantities of bogus data to the databases of the spammers, thus poisoning those files so badly that they become essentially useless :-)

OR they just want to get high google-ranks so they can earn money through advertisings...

but since i got a lot of referer-spam lately (which is highly likely to coincide with bots - think about multi-functionality), so it can’t hurt to link there
