Aligning my PC for the future

I've had a lot of upheaval in recent weeks. I switched my PC from Windows XP Pro to Mandriva Linux, and have a lot of folder and file reorganizing yet to do. I have lots of files which no longer matter to find and delete. Almost all of the programs I used in XP are not released for Linux, I have to relearn new packages to do the same thing. My Firefox used to be set up for surfing, now I am reorganizing that for working, which will take a while yet too.

I had a blog at WordPress.com but after about six weeks realized they were not the place for me. I also let my blog there get cluttered with too many subjects. This understandably led to my readership falling back so I knew I needed several blogs, it was only a case of narrowing down how many and how to split them up. Finally, this is done.

A quick run down of what each blog is for (as named in the sidebar list):

• Book Extracts - For sharing non-fiction book extracts, mostly PC related.
• Detective Agency - My personal blog, with day to day stuff.
• Extending Firefox - A guide to Mozilla Firefox extensions.
• Mosquito Fart - My technical blog, containing everything Linux, Microsoft etc.
• Novel Extracts - For sharing extracts of fictional novels I like.
• Playing Now On The Tube - My one-stop-shop for YouTube videos I want to share.
• Social Avalanche - My serious political / social blog, where my blogs tend to be lengthy.
• The CIA Monkey - My satirical blog, for those who don't recognize sarcasm without a signpost.
• The Star Wars Journal - My SW blog, mostly concentrating on the Expanded Universe.
  
  

I need to readjust my working practices, and find a pattern. These blogs will start rather irregularly but will find their own flow as I improve, please be patient.
