Future Shock'd - a tiny blog of no importance.
« on: 25 August, 2011, 03:01:17 PM »
A small blog about one of the more neglected 2000AD institutions. Updated daily (or 7-times-a-week) 'ish.

Brilliant stuff! Can't believe nobody's thought to do this before - though I doubt they'd have done it this well.

Thanks again all for your encouragement (and to Tharg's droids for not firing off a cease-and-desist notice).

Dr X - I don't think i've stuck on a subscribe option (at least not consciously) as I've managed to keep up a daily posting rate and reckoned people would get annoyed at daily reminders. If people would like it then there appears to be a subscription widget I can stick on.

You've all blown my daily visits record out of the water - quite scary to know the blog is being read by people who know far more about 2000AD than I instead of people searching for 'Elvis' and getting 'Elvis the Killer Car' instead of 'The King'.

I suspect I am being Mr Thickie but how do you follow this blog? I can't see the option!

The RSS feed isn't being auto-discovered but pop the link into Google Reader (or similar applications) and it nabs it straight away.

You can also get it from here:

I've also added an email widget if anyone is insane enough to want that.

Anyone who is familiar with wordpress can feel free to advise as I am a much more used to fusty academic journals that the nosebleed world of blogs and social media.

Big thanks to Emperor who has already provided excellent help and also Mr Arthur Wyatt (woot!) who appears to have reddit'd me (whatever that may be, I trust I wont be left blushing).
