Check out some of my new web-work
I have designed a new blog at Blogger:
The Raven's Nest
I've bought another domain:
bunik.info
The .com and .org domains are already grabbed up - so decided "info" was probably appropriate!
Have a couple domain names for sale:
endophysics.com
mysurfblog.com
Endophysics is one of the newest words in the scientific area of physics and relates to quantum physics. Was SHOCKED that name had not been bought!! Should up the price on it.
If anyone wants me to build them a blog on blogger - just get in touch with me.
