I changed some stuff about this blog — RSS feed location & a slight rearrangement of things. I’ve set up a redirection so you shouldn’t have to change your RSS feed if you use that. (About 3 times as many people read Poetry Hut Blog via RSS feed now rather than browsing here with a web browser.) Anyway, let me know if I have screwed anything up for you. This is the new RSS feed location, by the way: http://feeds.feedburner.com/poetryhut/HGTv
