title: Bag O' Links - 24/10/2010 (back!)
layout: post
---


Yeah, i know i said bag'o'links will go out of service a few months ago and that i'm going to move it the "Nautilus6":http://www.nautilus6.com website, but overall there were few other things i had to do with Nautilus6 prior to that.. i'll get to it when i can but it doesn't mean i can't re-post links does it?
