In which I move to Paris, start a new job, quit smoking and become an all round new and shiny person. Or not. But the moving to Paris/new job bit is real.

Technorati code
This isn't anything interesting. Technorati require me to make a post with the code 2ERH75CDMW9W in it, so they know I'm me.
They're a sort of blog listing company - they monitor how many people link to your blog and if lots of people read and link to your stuff, you get more points, and so more people might read your stuff. Basically.
I don't harbour any illusions that it'll make me rich and famous, but it costs nothing and you never know who might one day find it - though unlike with Nice, there are enough other people writing in Paris (people who do it professionally) that I can't think anyone will find me! This is not necessarily a bad thing...
Well it might, of course, and it can't hurt. However if I Google "a british expat in paris" you come up at No 12, which isn't on the first page, of course, but it is at the top of the next one (just after Lloyds bank!)
And Technorati are who, exactly, that they can require this rather mundane action of you?
