Hi there!
I have other sites on the net, but this one will be for my own rambles and journals.
My work related blog which talks about nonprofits using technology and social media and web accessibility Laura's Notebook. And my eclectic tumbles on the web over on Tumblr. There are more too. But that will do for now.
I am lucky to live in a place that has a field across the road from the house. In that field stands a huge old dead (well, very nearly!) oak tree. Some nights I dream that when I wake up, I'll open the curtains to have Totoro sat in the tree and staring back at me. I am a huge Studio Ghibli fan and with the recent snowfall, couldn't resist making one of my dreams come almost true.
The first I heard of this was what I first thought was a spam email
appearing in my inbox. "Laura - your tits are on the Guardian website!" Hmmm!
Anyway - couldn't help but take a look at the url sent by one of my
buddies to find to my delight, that one of my pics had been chosen as one
of the top ten from the RSPB's Big Garden Birdwatch Flickr group. Wow! Wasn't the best shot I added to the group, and this pic has also already been used by BBC Devon website too, but humbled none the less.
The other 9 pics which accompany mine are all splended and are much better
than my one, but if you want to take a look, and participate in the
voting, head over to
http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/blog/2009/jan/26/big-garden-birdwatch-birdwatching
and cast your vote today! (voting ends at the end of this week!)
The publicity for this years RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch
(http://www.rspb.org.uk/birdwatch ) has been immense. Local and national media has
picked up the story well, and the forecast has been that it has been
hopefully the best year ever. As well as being a fun event, it also helps
to provide a vital snapshot overview of something that we sometimes take
for granted, our little feathered friends that occupy our gardens!

Totally pointless, but just to add some fun whilst sitting at my screen munching on lunch I've begun a collage which will be built up bit by bit by adding odd images and items (not necessarily daily though!) and am using it as my twitter background. Pics below are snapshots of day 1 and day 2 so far. Yup totally pointless, did warn!
Happy for suggestions from peeps of items to add too (have a list building already but always open to new ideas!). Leave a comment or message me via Twitter!
