Finslippy
I love the name of this blog. Finslippy. It belongs to someone named Alice who has a little boy named Henry, who I believe is the little guy wearing the bee suit in the photo to the left (adorable, no?). Maybe Alice named her blog 'Finslippy' because it sounds like something you'd come up with while giving your three-year old a bath with lots of bubbles, or maybe Henry came up with it. I don't know, maybe I'll find the answer to this if I dig deeper into the archives.
I love reading blogs by people who share their real-life stories in amusing ways and are good with words. Alice writes really well and tells an excellent tale. I think I like this place...
Oh, almost forgot, this is a dual-purpose post:
I found out about Finslippy in a pretty cool way, by using this new Google tool called the TouchGraph GoogleBrowser V1.01 that was posted over at Dr. Hyatt's blog.
When I first started up the tool, I punched in ollapodrida.net/blog and the applet loaded, but then my entire machine froze up and I had to reboot. On second try, everything worked like a dream. If you're a blogger and have been at it a while, you won't believe how many links show up with this thing.
Try it so you know how it works, I'm not going to go into explaining it here, but that's how I found Finslippy.
