This is the research diary of researcher Lisbeth Klastrup, since february 2001 sharing her thoughts on life, universe, persistent online worlds, games, interactive stories and internet oddities with you on the www.

I am currently on leave from the IT University of Copenhagen, and from aug. 2006 - aug. 2007 working as Associate Research Professor at the Center for Design Research Copenhagen, an independant center situated at the School of Architecture. During this year, I will be working on a book about the development of aesthetics, design and interaction on the WWW, together with colleague Ida Engholm.

My blog often reflects how busy I am in general, so posting may be pretty irregular, as well as my potential response to comments. But I read them!

Today is the official

1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY

of Klastrup's Cataclysms.
I can't believe that an entire year has past since I posted these lines. Still, I am pretty happy with the way this blog has developped - my intention of bookmarking and commenting stuff I read and saw on the net has worked well, and I now find myself browsing through the archives to find specific URL or thoughts that I want to use in my writing or my teachin -so it really is a useful tool.

Also, quite a few bloggers have joined the community since I started - and there is a nice sense of fellow exchanges and cross-postal reading between people like Jill (the mother-blogger), Torill, Hilde, Gonzalo, Anja, Adrian, Frank, Laurel, Elin , Carsten, and Lars. Anders is new on the blog, but will definitely be read. Jesper still refuses to blog, but at least now he is looking over our shoulders (*waves*). As is Ragnhild (*another wave*). And some of the Finns occasionally. Jan is a trusty reader too (*wave towards Jylland*). As is the omnipresent Mark Bernstein, who must be the most avid reader in the world...(*respect*).
Oh, and it should be mentioned that so far I have been visited 8 times by the US Gov. and 8 times by the US Mil since September 11th. According to Mark this happens regularly on many websites, so not to worry. But Im still just a little bit wary....

All in all people from more than 60 different domain names have visited this blog - most are country domains. Top 3 domain visitors are .dk, .com and .net URLs. But .no is a strong number 4 with 389 visits! Most exotic visitors must be the person from SAO TOME AND PRINCIPE and him/her from FAROE ISLANDS (.FO). My counter stats also tells me that 79% af all visitors use an Internet Explorer browser. A little more than 14% uses a version of Netscape. 156 visitors used Opera to view this page (=less than 1%) - so it definitely looks like IE is the big winner, for better for worse. Which is good, because this page definitely looks best in IE - not intentionally, but just happens to be so...

Looking forward to one more year of blogging, though I expect that blogging later this year might be rather sparse as I reach the stage where I Really have to Finish my ph.d.thesis. If what you write about in your blog, is "who" you are, one would suspect, I guess, that I am drawn more and more into gaming and games. Perhaps I am, not the least because I am under the subtle influence of Games Spokesman Jesper Juul, whom I in RL share an office with. Or just that game studies is just what's hot currently...As is, I want to try and focus more on virtual worlds in times to come - let's see what the winds and the net fishing will bring me.

Greetings to all :))
