Three Years of Blogging
I started Words of a Broken Mirror three years ago! I can hardly believe so much time has passed since then. I wrote a couple of posts in Romanian, then switched to English. It was a good way to practice and allowed more people to interract with me. And this was a great choice. Cause I met the most amazing people from all over the world. You can meet them too, just browse through my blogroll!

Last year in May, my wonderfull friend and sister by choice Trisi got a .com domain as a present on my name's day and I built a new home for WOBM over there. But as this blogger page was home to my ideas, torments, songs playing in my mind, to my happyness and sorrows, to my friends' comments for so long, I kept it going long after it went out of page rank (let's all thank Google again for their nice little algorythm).

It is however time to move on. It's impossible to keep both blogs running and provide meaningful and frequent content given my generally crazy schedule which apparently is going to stay busy for ever. I won't delete the posts or restrict visits in any way. This is where my blogger identity was born and it still is a great place to look through forgotten little thoughts and happenings.

I will keep posting on my photoblog, I won't transfer anywhere for now. So keep going back to see the Views of a Broken Mirror posted daily (at least that's what I want to achieve there).

I hope this change won't turn you into strangers and that you'll continue to drop by and see what's new on WOBM. I know I'll keep meeting amazing people over there and continue the amazing experience I've started three years ago in the blogosphere. See you all around!



P.S. On this bloggiversary, I give you one of my favorite songs: Depeche Mode, Precious. Enjoy!

Precious and fragile things
Need special handling
My God what have we done to You?

We always try to share
The tenderest of care
Now look what we have put You through...

Things get damaged
Things get broken
I thought we'd manage
But words left unspoken
Left us so brittle
There was so little left to give

Angels with silver wings
Shouldn't know suffering
I wish I could take the pain for You

If God has a master plan
That only He understands
I hope it's Your eyes He's seeing through

Things get damaged
Things get broken
I thought we'd manage
But words left unspoken
Left us so brittle
There was so little left to give

I pray You learn to trust
Have faith in both of us
And keep room in Your heart for two

Things get damaged
Things get broken
I thought we'd manage
But words left unspoken
Left us so brittle
There was so little left to give

Blogging, a Fine Art
This is how Diogenes sees blogging and how he promotes it through his "Fine Art of Blogging" project. On his blog, he has gathered valuable input from first class bloggers on blogging, why and how to blog, what makes a blog stand out and generally everything there is to know about bloggers and their art.

Read an interview with Diogenes regarding this very project on the New WOBM.

The New WOBM
As you all know, I have a new .com domain for Words of a Broken Mirror. And I did manage to set it up and publish on it. While it is still in progress, please feel free to visit my new blog from time to time. I have decided to keep both blogs alive, but write different articles on each of them.

I intend to keep daily news and Romanian facts here mostly, while directing to WOBM.com all my books and movies reviews, general articles on tourism, entries on travel destinations and other such writings. I hope you will all keep enjoying both of my blogs.

Attention! Works in Progress and a Brithday!
I have been working hard on my new home for WOBM. While the installing part was a pain until D figured it's just extremely easy, the customizing work is taking a while. But I am on top of things so feel free to keep an eye on my progress and on Trisi's soon to be implemented amazing logo design.

On a different note, today is D's birthday. So...


I hope you enjoy every second of this day, at least after office hours :P Have a wonderful year, birthday boy!

New Wardrobe
As spring is here, I felt the need of a new skin for Words of a Broken Mirror. So I took a template from here (free), and with a lot of help and patience from Ryan, I managed to also modify it to finally please me.

Hope all of you like the new look.
