Been working hard on my website. Traffic is picking up. Green line: peer median, blue: me - so I'm a bit below, but am happy since my site was hacked and endless problems with my service provider. Our world is now dominated by online presence. We must be seen.

The reopening of the Joburg Library is exciting news for the City of Johannesburg, reading, arts and literature in general. Nice for students to be able to go there and study.
Hope it's well attended.
