@BooTCaT - Manually, for the most part. I used the word count feature of Microsoft Word, taking the word count of a known number of posts and calculating the average.

If I was going to do a larger number, I'd probably write a PHP script or similar to parse out the content from the site or via RSS feeds.

Modern Life is no longer updated.

After a long hiatus due to increased working commitment, lack of inspiration, and unclear goals: I've decided not to rekindle this blog but to start anew in more fertile soil. Modern Life will remain online as-is for the forseeable future.

I'm now posting at my new blog, User Interfaced.
