Knitting industry

Bob, who knows much more about information technology than I do, recommended me to claim this and DeathMonkey site. Claiming a site sounded little bit suspicious, but he told me, that by doing it both sites would get more hits. More hits is more publicity and as Rolling Stones said back in the day, all publicity is good publicity.

There were two sites to do this. Or two that he told me to do it in. Other is Technocrati or something, which apparently is multinational. Other one, where I claimed these both since it didn't require any coding or hard work was finnish based blogilista.fi, where lots and lots of blogs somehow related to Finland are listed. It all went fine and dandy until I made an interesting notion.

It might be that Bob has developed his skills in scamming and is laughing his head of somewhere right now or finnish people are just deeply attached to knitting. How come all the most red blogs were about knitting just doesn't fit into my small mind. It might be a great hobby and definetely something, where one needs to see other peoples works to develop their own, but blogging about it. Come on.

Although I didn't read any of those dozens blogs related to issue, it is easy to imagine what they might be like.

"My name is Mary and I just love to knit. Yesterday I did some knitting for my cat (linked to a picture of a regular cat) and used some woollen string. Tomorrow I am going to knit some more, since my life is hollow and my man doesn't give me enough loving."

Not that my stories or thoughts would be any better or more interesting, but, for gods sake (17vol%), knitting. I knew that Bob has a dark side in him and isn't telling everything and I always thought it would just be a drug habit or perverted desire to wear womens underwear, but apparently he is somehow involved in this knitting business. As a friend I am deeply concerned and trying to think of ways to help him out of the web he has knitted for himself.

Endure just a little bit more, Bob! We are coming to the rescue!
