A legitimate question was asked by one of our viewers. "You constantly refer to Belltowernews.com as the original Grazing blog. What connection is there between Belltower News and grazing?"
As I consider it, it's a wonder this question hasn't be asked earlier. The answer is economics.
A while back, when working as a solo development act, an establishment in Vermont asked me to help with the set-up of an on-line newsletter. As was usual for back then, I created a domain name and a hosting site for the newsletter that was the same as its name, Belltower News.
The creation of this domain name was a bit premature. They wanted the newsletter to reside on their own server as a link. Haste makes waste.
Not wanting to be wasteful, I was looking for a place to link the newly created blog Random Thoughts Grazing. I had found that the words Random and Thoughts in many variations were already used in many blogs. So, I linked the blog to Belltowernews.com and changed its name to fit the URL
Backwards engineering of a sort, but I like it.
There about a dozen or so grazing blogs still in operation. All of them do have the word Grazing in their title, just not this one. It is in the subtitle.
