Snookerbacker I’ve not had time to fully read through it but I read the 90’s article about White and Hendry and thought it was a great read.

Thanks chaps, greatly appreciated - I'll try and keep up the quality. It's good to know there is a lively snooker forum other than the ones obsessed with gambling - will make a point of visiting here regularly during the comps.

Also meant to say, if anyone has any ideas for the blog feel free to get in touch, particularly during the quieter periods.

Just put a link to here on my blog, hope that isn't a problem. I'll obviously remove it if it is.

Not sure it is that, just a free service from Wordpress, I'm pretty impressed with the things it provides in real time to be honest - nothing too intrusive but very useful in terms of seeing where things come from (for instance it does help to know what stories people are reading so I can judge how to pitch it - snooker v gambling - then I just do what I want anyway! But it's the first time I've done a blog so I'm probably easily impressed and I'm not in your league in terms of the bits and bobs you can do.
I've just been having a good look around here and I'm really impressed. If you want to blatantly lift any of my stuff for your blog then that's not a problem as long as I get some credit! I'm probably a bit too tongue in cheek for what you're looking for though, but I know a few people 'in the business' are reading my drivel so perhaps it might help you out too. But anyway this is a really good forum and it's great to see a snooker focus and such a vibrant community being established.

Thanks for the kind words and there is always room for a bit of humour on the SF blog so I might take you up on your offer at some point

Does this include Snooker websites?
The
www.RIBSA.ie website is updated all the time with what is happening on the Amateur circuit here in Ireland. Its not a blog, just shows comps coming up, results of same, etc....

I've changed the design of the blog. You can access a huge database of videos that keeps growing, and you don't need to speak Spanish to watch them. It might be interesting during this period of "holidays".
Recorded matches from 2009/10147sCentury breaks-100 breaksP.S.: I don't mean to spam, just to share a nice collection of online videos.

welcome quintahunter - that's a nice site you have there. I've linked it to the Websphere section of forums which is all I can do for the time being.
viewforum.php?f=3In future the links page will be more than just this.

Thanks Sonny. Snooker is growing in Spain and hopefully we'll have a tournament soon, mantaining a good site is all I can do to help.

I've just arrived to 100,000 visits on my blog (a year and a half). How many visits do you get daily? We're around 200-300 now. I guess other blogs receive many more, but snooker isn't that big in Spain/South America yet and I suppose publishing in Spanish is a bit of a barrier to expand.
