Thanks to the amazing infrastructure of the Internet, this blog is getting picked up in web searches.

Although I am not surprised, it has been quite a thrill to have the first commenters appear on this blog.  I have been playing with different themes, and want to end up with a theme that will give equal weight to my commenters as well as to my musings — presenting everything together without anyone having to make a lot of choices and clicks.

Since I have a few other requirements, it might take a little time to fine tune the theme to be what I want it to be, and since I am relying on WordPress as a service (rather than running it on my own web host, which I could do) I am a bit more constrained than usual.

Thanks to those who have posted early and have been so supportive.
