Things have been pretty hectic the last few weeks, mainly because I’ve just started a new job, and I’ve found that I really don’t have the time or energy at the moment to blog. Even worse, I feel that what I’m writing is becoming a bit stale.
So, it’s time to take a short break from the blogging, and recharge the batteries. For ther rest of this month, unless we see another Russian revolution, I won’t be updating siberianlight.net.
Hopefully, I’ll be back in December. Until then, there are plenty of great Russian blogs listed on the sidebar.

This is very bad news, but understandable. I hope you feel the need to return to blogging sooner than December. Your site and commentary is such a great resource. And a source of much inspiration . . .

I know the feeling. Sometimes I take several weeks off at a time. Although I don’t think your blogging has been stale, you should definitely take time off to recharge your blogging batteries if you are feeling worn out. I look forward to your postings soon.

Hi there,
I really like your site and am thinking about doing a sort of world wide blog, with individuals submitting information from their areas. Would you be interested in posting to another site, relevant news?
My idea is that covering relevant articles from all over the world is just too big for any one person. Blogging overwhelms the blogger many times and they drop out. If we had a network of like-minded people, it might be possible to create something significant. What do you think?
I’ve posted a couple of articles to play with the idea:

If you were interested, a short editorial and then link would be great, so people can scan headlines and then link to the whole story. I would add you to the members list so you can post your material.

Hey Andy - you have a great resource here, starting out my RussiaBlog I was inspired and even slightly jealous. If you don’t mind, I’m inviting your readers to my blog at http://www.russiablog.org - I’m planning to do updates every day, and it might get hectic around the Thanksgiving. Great work on the Light, have fun at your new job!

You better start back up because I nominated you for best Europe blog in the awards Wizbang! runs every year. Granted, I tried to justify my nomination in that category, but I’ll just have to do with the Asia one.
OTOH, if you took a long enough hiatus, I’d be a damned lock for the AFOE award this year.
