One Year Old Today
One year on. Blow out the candles, pass the parcel and hang the balloons.
Yup, it has been a whole twelve months since the very first post – British Farce is Back – discussed my reservations with the scriptwriting of ‘Death at a Funeral’. Since then, the blog has changed, evolved, adding and removed widgets, played with layout and generally sought continual improvement to reach today.
It still excites me that there are people out there willing to read my ramblings and idle thoughts. The recent achievements of the blog still amaze me. Finding myself listed at number 44 in the Top 100 Blogs in Australia blew me away. To then go on and see my blog in ‘B&T Magazine' as the number 6 Aussie marketing blog convinced me that I must be doing something right.
It seems appropriate to look back at the highlights of the year, the posts that account for this great success and that I enjoyed writing. Hopefully, some of these will be new to you. Why not enjoy some of these hidden gems.
This top ten – in no particular order - is made up of those posts that have gained the most traffic, the most links from other blogs or because they are my particular favourites.
Want to give me a birthday present? Why not subscribe (I love subscribers), leave comments or Stumble your favourite post? Give a post a Digg or share it with your followers on Twitter. Copywrite has been so successful to date because people are willing to pass it on to other interested readers. Nothing makes me happier than seeing readers respond to my content by sharing it.

There you go. Plenty more posts I could have picked, (an honourable mention must go to 'A Lament for Children's Comics') but these I think present a reasonable cross-section of the last year.
