Ha! Now this is as self serving as it gets. During the last post in this series I wrote about Gillianic Tendencies. I considered making this entry about one of the Blogs I actually read frequently as the next entry in my series of Blogs-I-Read. Instead I will crassly refer only to some other websites I author my self.

Dickinson Marine is my employer and they make marine appliances. At Dickinson Diesel, I write posts containing corporate events, technical data and other information useful to the customers of our stoves and heaters. I like writing here because I know the posts are useful and I get to use my own voice a little. As it is my occupation, I will not give any additional detail.

In addition to this boat-related website, I have started Slocum’s Locker. This site is my first attempt at a productive blog where I use my skills and contacts in the marine industry to provide niche content on a website soon to host sponsored links and advertising. Just content at the moment though. No ads. Joshua Slocum was a famous navigator and author during the turn of the last century. He was the first man to sail around the world alone and he wrote the groundbreaking book. Sailing Around the World Alone, now part of the navigator’s canon. The site is to look like some of the blogs I will write about in the next Blogs-I-Read post.

I know, your may think “He just wants us to link to the sites to bump up his traffic.” Um… Yeah! Link away!
