Where I get links

About

My name is Dermot Oates (Derry to friends, Zootoon on the internet). Zootoon was a bilingual (English-Catalan) blog which I kept up for 8 years until February 2008, when I changed the format and threw out all the old stuff, as I was really getting tired of writing about links that didn't really need an accompanying text. This new format allows me to update much more easily and with a greater range of links. If you want to suggest a link, write to me at gmail (zootoon). My other webs are Catfood (a kind of compilation of reviews on food and drink in Catalonia, in English, Catalan and Spanish, still being started), Qüestionem (a web where you can ask people things and answer their questions) with over 4,000 members! And Confutatis, where I put my photos.

Em dic Dermot Oates (Derry pels amics, Zootoon a l'internet).Zootoon era un blog bilingüe (català-anglès) durant 8 anys, fins que al febrer del 2008 vaig canviar el format i m'he desfet dels continguts anteriors. M'estava cansant de pensar en un text per acompanyar links que no necessitaven text acompanyant. Aquest format és més fàcil d'actualitzar i permet una gama més ample de links. Si em vols suggerir un link, escriu-me a gmail (zootoon). Els meus altres webs són Catfood (una mena de compendi de crítiques sobre el menjar a Catalunya, en anglès, català i castellà - encara s'està fent), Qüestionem (un web on pots preguntar coses i contestar les preguntes dels altres) amb més de 4000 inscrits! I Confutatis, on poso les meves fotos.
