No Rock and Roll Fun is 20,000

This post really is to warn you that, in another 4,999 post, we'll be doing something to "celebrate" the 25,000th post on No Rock.

To stop this being totally redundant, a few quick pieces of housekeeping.

First, I'm slowly working through the older archive posts to try and get them into some sort of housestyle, properly tagged, more easy to search and so on; it's going to take time, but that's why some old posts look like they were posted yesterday and some are laid out completely differently. I'm not changing any of the content of the posts - although some of the more egregious spelling mistakes might be corrected - so, if the story points through to a page that has, in the last few years, vanished from the internet, it'll still be there and - however tempting it might be - I'm not going to change posts to benefit from hindsight. ("How splendid a choice Billie Piper is to accompany Doctor Who...")

Second, some other ways you can 'enjoy' No Rock: we're flattered to be part of The Word magazine's News Aggregator, although having our posts rubbing up against shoulders with the likes of Andrew Collins and Rob Fitzpatrick makes us feel like a caravan parked in Park Lane.

You can actually have posts delivered the moment they happen (sort-of) via email, which is an almost-secret; we've been routinely getting Blogger to post entries to a GoogleGroup for the last - blimey - 13,000 messages or so, to develop a separate archive in case anything bad ever happens. 13,000 messages suggests it's quite a robust service, so if you prefer that method of getting stuff, sign up at GoogleGroups.

You'll probably have spotted down there on the left there's been a Tumblr feed which churns out bits and pieces of non-No Rock stuff that grabs me as I wander about the internet; it also pulls in stuff from my Twitter feed, which you can follow - should you wish - directly. It's the microblogging revolution.
