Hello world!

weltschmerz, n. Sadness over the evils of the world, especially as an expression of romantic pessimism.

Yes, I've finally given in to the overwhelming peer pressure and got myself a blog.

If you're willing to stretch the definition a little, I suppose I've been keeping a 'blog' of sorts since August 2003: my song of the moment. But SotM is a bit limited (in terms of content, functionality, etc.), and not updated as often as I'd like. I'm unsure as to whether I'll incorporate SotM into this blog, and whether this blog will eventually render my entire site obsolete. Time will tell.

A note on the name. I set my heart on Blogger/Blogspot, but unfortunately someone beat me to weltschmerz.blogspot.com (and they're not even using it, dammit). blogSpirit looks pretty funky so far; I'll fiddle with the settings and add some bells and whistles in the next few days, when I find time. In the meantime, comments and suggestions for improvement are most welcome!

Wow, first comment. The privilege is so great I'm feeling nervous. To keep this short, just want to say: have fun blogging. End.

Ello pf, nice site, I love the snowman, he's groovy in a confused sort of way. I'd hug him but I'd get my pinny cold and wet :(
