Hope you have an enjoyable Easter and that it鈥檚 nice and restful after last weekend鈥檚 exertions at the Fank!

Today Scallowawife added her voice to the growing number of bloggers who would like to see the return of :

鈥渃ome on capricorn - you have to blog to get back to the top again - we have shown you are wanted - another blog please!鈥�

If you鈥檙e reading this, capricornsmallcat, please do think about another post! It was a short but sweet first entry back in February and we鈥檇 love to hear from you again鈥�

I鈥檓 perplexed. The Argyll and Clyde islands have gone fairly quiet and I don鈥檛 know why.

Since the beginning of March we鈥檝e had contributions from 9 bloggers (10 if you include angel garden who, it unfortunately turned out, wasn鈥檛 based on Fladda at all. But we鈥檇 still like to hear from you via the comments angel garden, so please get back in touch!)

If you know any lapsed bloggers from the Argyll & Clyde area give them a gentle shove and remind them that we鈥檇 like to hear what they鈥檝e been up to. If you live in the area yourself but don鈥檛 have a blog yet, to see how you can contribute.

It would be particularly good to get some new bloggers from

Colonsay
Easdale
Fladda
Gigha
Great Cumbrae
Iona
Lismore
Lunga
Seil

But if you鈥檙e on one of the other islands it would be great to have you on board too.

Don鈥檛 forget we have lovely Island Blogging promotional posters and postcards which are free to a good home. So if you can think of a suitable place for them in your community email me at islandblogging@bbc.co.uk and I鈥檒l send them out to you.

Have you come across Radio Five Live鈥檚 programme Pods & Blogs? It鈥檚 an hourly show 鈥渄edicated to covering the news as it's seen by bloggers, podcasters and the citizen media鈥�.

It鈥檚 broadcast in the early hours of Tuesday mornings but if you鈥檙e not up at 2 am to hear it (!) you can catch it via Listen Again.

Click on for more about the show.

Just a reminder that as there鈥檚 an election pending we can鈥檛 publish any posts or comments which might seem to favour one particular party, or which could be deemed to be encouraging or discouraging voters towards a party/candidate.

Of course, come the 4th of May, you can let us all know your thoughts on the results! ;-)

There鈥檚 an interesting entry on Pods & Blogs which ties in with my recent post. It seems that some people are forgetting that when something of theirs is published online they can鈥檛 control the way it鈥檚 consumed or who鈥檚 consuming it. I guess it's easy to forget that we're not just publishing to the UK and our pals such as mjc, Carol and Dag. It's a big world wide web out there...



Enjoy your weekend

Anne :)

There seems to have been a problem with comments being published to the site yesterday. If you submitted comments but have not seen them on the site yet please email me at islandblogging@bbc.co.uk.

Thanks
