A Foray Into the Web Community

After attending the third lecture in my Publishing module and discussing the benefits to future job applications of blogging, I have decided to start blogging anew with the addition of joining forums all over the web.
Last night I joined www.landyzone.co.uk mainly because I intend to take Katy and myself on an overland expedition to either Cape Town or Vladivostock. Since I was a small boy I have wanted a Land Rover to carry out just such an adventure and this is the beginning of that adventure.
To date I have looked into equipment ranging from main form of transportation to high tech gadgets to help make hunting game easier. In this vein, I discovered this fantastic website: http://www.zeromotorcycles.com/ They are a silicon valley company who have figured out how to shrink Lithium-ion batteries and make them far more powerful and more stable in a high drain application such as propelling you and your bike along at up to 60mph. I have a vivid image of me riding silently through the bush after our next few meals on four legs.
I have also looked into a Kinetic Energy Recycling (KER) system for attaching to the big landy in order to charge batteries and electronic equipment.
These two small parts of the adventure are in my head sloshing around with all the other stuff.
Katy and I are off to see Vicky Christina Barcelona tomorrow after spending the day at Leap so expect a review over the weekend.
Back to the Paella! And to searching for the next Forum to join!
