I suspect that when we try and make our serendipity habitual that we lose some of the sponteneity required and we tire of it. Keep kicking rocks and you get a sore toe. Keeping our attitude open and young is what matters, perhaps. And issuu was just the sort of tool I happened to be looking for earlier today, so thanks - this was, as well, a serendipitous visit. thanks for a great post. it made me wonder about Twitter and for some of us I suspect that at least early on, Twitter facillitates the type of serendipity you describe – stumbling across new tools with a youthful joy.

Once in a while, I actually come out to your blog to read it in the original. Do you think this impacts your Clicky stats? Just a thought.... JZ P.S. By the way, I'd be happy to start reading your posts "on-site" to boost your stats... ;-) Alan,
