Roughly speaking, I started the year working quite hard on heavily researched posts about progressive education and the future. As the year went on I just got busier and busier with work and blogged mainly about things I’d just seen online or in the news, making the blog a lot more topical and controversial. There’s been more media coverage and a big explosion in Twitter followers. My new year’s  resolution as a blogger will be to find some time to write some more in depth and researched posts, although it looks like I’m already out of spare time for that during this holiday.
