Can it be true Christopher Columbus, the 15th century explorer, was actually a Scotsman?
The historian Villalonga was combing the archives in the Genoa region, the Spanish history academy and national library. Villalonga found out Christopher Columbus was actually called Pedro Scotto and he was not Italian but of Scottish origin.
You can read the whole story here: Christopher Columbus a Scotsman.

Make your blog individual

Nowadays, nearly every website that needs some information-updating now and then is done using a so-called “content management system”.

Blogging software can be seen as a special sub-category type of cms. The software we use to manage our blog is called WordPress. And since you know that individuality is important for most people, there are many different themes available for WordPress to give your blog an individual and/or personal touch. I must admit that we are using a standard theme for the moment, but this may change soon…

If you have ever wanted to create your own WordPress Theme then this is your lucky day. Be sure to check out these nifty tutorials.
You’ll only need some very very basic html and php knowledge to understand them! Even I managed it. Maybe you will see the effects of my efforts soon
