Catherine, you just made my day! Thank you so very much for your kind comments. Since I subscribe to the RSS feed for “Reporting on Conflict”, I’d noticed that you’d picked up a number of my posts, and I want you to know how grateful I am to you for that. I’m glad you think my blog is not merely informative but fun, too — that’s what I strive for, and it makes me happy to know that I’m hitting the right notes for at least one of my readers! Thanks again, Catherine!

Hi Diane

Thanks for your comments! I continue to enjoy seeing your posts. They’re informative and what is often not found in our field, they are usually fun! Fresh air! Yours is my favourite ADR blog. A fair few of your postings find their way into Peacemakers Trust “Reporting on Conflict’.

Cool! Thanks, Michael. Although FYI there's a much easier way to do basically the same thing without messing with all that crazy Blogger code. You can create a widget for your blog that displays the feeds you enjoy using Grazr. In fact, you can see one in action at the World Directory of ADR Blogs Reading Room.

You might be interested in this tip for converting your blog roll into a stream of recent posts from your favourite blogs. Don't worry about it being an MT trick, it will work with WP, too.
