Time to blog!

Sunday, May 28th, 2006

It’s about time to post a sign of life. My last item on this blog is from December 2, 2005, it seems like ages ago.When do you blog most? When you have lots of time and nothing to talk about or when you are extremely busy and no time to blog? I don’t know. It […]

Dot.com meets dot.net

Tuesday, October 4th, 2005

We did not meet in cyberspace, but in zoo Dierenpark Amersfoort this Sunday, sort of in the middle between the villages where we each live.

And here we are, first post at www.deelman.com. I have had this Internet domain as "early" as 1999 but up to now not used the webspace coming with it. I realised in 1999 that having your lastname as an Internet domain represents some value: each family member a truly personal email address for life. Fortunately, […]
