No Winner of the BFI Hunt, Search, and the Presumed Hack Attack

January 21, 2008 This blog No Comments

My little competition attracted quite a few people, but nobody posted the winning response. Anyway, the contest is over now. Thanks to anyone who had a go.
I think I’ll run something similar in the future, most probably when the Google search system is fully up and running. Google has not finished indexing Blog from Italy yet, so the search results are still incomplete, I know. This is why there are two search systems at the moment.

The WordPress search system will disappear once Google is up to speed.

Back to the contest, if anyone did have problems of any kind, then please let me know. At least so I can streamline things in the future.

As for the hack attack I thought I had, my hosting service tells me that there was no attempt to hack attack Blog from Italy, although I remain not 100% convinced. Someone from Australia was doing something odd, and odd things started happening. Oh the joys of running your own site.

Francesco Cossiga Understood Italy

18 Aug 2010

For those who did not know, Francesco Cossiga, who died the other day, was an Italian politician and one time President of Italy. Cossiga hailed from Sardinia, was a fan of John Le Carre and had earned himself the nickname “the pickaxe” owing to his no holds barred criticism of other Italian politicians.

Berlusconi v Fini – Slinging Old Mud

12 Aug 2010

Berlusconi Divorces Fini

30 Jul 2010

Kotipizza Berlusconi

From spat to full-blown split. Silvio Berlusconi’s marriage of political convenience to Gianfranco Fini has ended in tears. Scorned lover Berlusconi even rejected Fini’s last minute attempts to kiss and make up and remain part of Berlusconi’s party of love. End of love in. Period.
