Ignore the pretty front-page and go for the links. User contributions to the DW field are a bit thin on the ground, and more material is always welcome. <\/p>\n<p>He also has a <a href=\"http:\/\/web.mac.com\/stephenbarr\/iWeb\/ETL%20Performance\/Blog\/Blog.html\">blog<\/a>, which is well worth a visit and I&#8217;ve added a link in the list on the right here.<\/p>\n<p>Next there are a couple of changes to existing blogs. Both <a href=\"http:\/\/oraclesponge.wordpress.com\/\">David Aldridge<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oracle-base.com\/blog\/\">Tim Hall<\/a> have moved their blogs off Blogger. Dave is using WordPress.com and Tim is hosting it himself (but using WordPress too). Both are always worth a visit and both are looking pretty nice these days.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, having praised Serendipity in my last post, one source of minor annoyance is that clicking the blog links in the right hand pane here opens them in a new browser window. I&#8217;d like to change this default behaviour and, although I haven&#8217;t investigated it in any depth, if anyone knows the answer, feel free to leave a comment. (By the way &#8211; right-click the link &#8211; doesn&#8217;t count.
