    I see that I’ve been named on the Pink List – the list of prominent LBGT people produced by the Independent on Sunday.

    To me, the net is all about people. Community breaks out where people have meeting places and all of a sudden, we have the power for people to meet in so many new ways. There are far too many places online where we are offered information only as though we are supposed to think of…
