  1. At least one? I would rather think that there are too many where things are going on, I succeed in reading only a small number of them :o)

  2. You’re thinking of the Italian ones, aren’t you?! It did pass through my mind that even yours and Isabella’s greatly increase the number of active ones. But what about Carob, Legalesed, courtinterpreter.NET? But you’re right, there’s probably enough to read as it is.

  3. Oh, Margaret, you’re right, actually I was forgetting about my isolated position: I can read both English and German blogs (I could also read French blogs if I were less lazy :-( ), but it’s you, the German and/or English speakers who are less likely to read Italian (in general, at least) :-/

  4. Not really, tischlbong is too hard for me! At any rate, I think I lost something in what you said, but at the very beginning I was thinking about (very active) blogs in general, not really about Italian ones (which, yes, of course, I read most, again out of laziness)
