Moving Site

This will be my last blog post.

On this site.

Any new posts I write will be at http://observealot.wordpress.com. The new site will also contain all my old posts and any comments people made on this blogspot site, so it should just be a case of updating your bookmarks and RSS Feeds appropriately.

Speaking of RSS Feeds the new one is http://observealot.wordpress.com/feed/ . If you don't use an RSS Feed, then the easiest way to keep up with me is to follow me on Twitter (http://twitter.com/markdavo) where any new posts I publish are always tweeted about. If you don't use Feeds or Twitter then you'll just have to keep checking the new site manually to see if there's any updates.

For those of you wondering why I'm making this change, it's for two fairly simple reasons:

1) I like the new simplified design I've chosen on wordpress better.

2) I now have a URL that fits the title of the site, since "Those who are dumber" was a relic of an even older blog I never really got round to taking off the ground.

So thanks very much for joining me on this site, and I very much look forward to writing for you over at:

http://observealot.wordpress.com

Change of Blog Title

I started writing this blog a week or so with the intention of doing my top fives of the decade and year and then stopping. In previous years, I had posted these on facebook, but since I knew the posts I wanted to do would take at least two hours to write, thought I'd open it up to a slightly wider audience.

The feedback from speaking to friends has been positive enough that I'll hopefully continue to update this blog on a semi-regular basis (by which I mean a few times every month). My intention is to post about anything interesting I've seen recently on the big or small screen. Whether that be trailers, movies, episodes/seasons of TV, or cats playing pianos with their tails.

As such this blog will hence forth be known as:
"You can observe a lot by just watching"

If you're interested the quote is from Yogi Berra a baseball player/coach who was known for coming up with some of the most well-known sporting cliches/paradoxes. "It ain't over til it's over" being the most well-known.

The URL for the site will remain the same:
http://thosewhoaredumber.blogspot.com

Bonus points for the first person to tell me where I got the phrase "those who are dumber" from.
