I started chilot.wordpress.com (now chilot.me) on January 18, 2011 (only days left to celebrate my first year.)

The plan for 2012
Here is a brief outline of what I will be doing in 2012.
- Keep blogging
- Case comments on a regularly basis.
- Articles and legal analysis
- Moving to wordpress.org provided someone help me with online payment. The problem with me is not the cost, rather the mode of payment.
What follows is the annual report by worpress.com about Ethiopian legal brief.
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2011 annual report for this blog.
Here’s an excerpt:
The Louvre Museum has 8.5 million visitors per year. This blog was viewed about 77,000 times in 2011. If it were an exhibit at the Louvre Museum, it would take about 3 days for that many people to see it.
