Look, y’all pervs. If you type “singapore blog girl” into Google, the first hit is probably the one you’re looking for. Not my baseball or my arts review blogs, even if they’re among the first few hits you get…

Actually, I don’t have any Singaporean readers. Okay, that’s not true. But a good majority (75%) of my readers hail from out of this here country, at least judging by the geographical locations of readers of this site, although of course it could just be friends of mine scattered from across the world. So I’m always intrigued by blogs that are written in Singapore, but often only tangentially about Singapore, such as John & Belle Have a Blog or Snog Blog.

I guess some people use the Internet to connect with immediate neighbours, while others use it to connect outside borders, and who’s to say what’s better? I suppose I’m part of the latter group, with the “connecting outside Singapore” part being also true of the Internet forums to which I belong - Barbelith, the Sons of Sam Horn, and Boston Sports Media Watch, among others.
