Ok, so this is the first post from us. Nothing too flashy and no fanfare to begin with.

We're going to use this blog to highlight cool & intriguing stuff and post some thoughts and ideas from time to time. It won't be filled with reviews and news - you can get that on our main site at www.greenguide.co.uk over the coming months - but we will occasionally point you to new content on the website like listings, case studies, jobs and events, offers and content from the magazine when it gets going.

We'll also point you to other sites and blogs - stuff we like, stuff we disagree with, stuff we think it's worth taking up time to look at.

So a digest, if you will, with a side order of comment and opinion.

Your ideas and comments are always appreciated, even if critical (well, maybe not so appreciated if critical, but hey, that's yin & yang...).

House rules are simple: Keep it clean, keep it friendly, and stay on topic. And you guys from Russia, I'm not interested in viagra - not just yet - so stay away for the moment. I'll call you when I need you.

That's it. We seem to have reached cruising altitude. Now, where the hell are those meerkats?
