A couple of friends – yesterday it was Veronica Kitchen – have asked why I don’t keep a blog. I’m not sure why I’ve resisted, but one obvious obstacle was focus: should I write on public policy?, negotiating? highlight the cool work being done by friends like Tina, Beltzner, ALo or Jesse M? To be honest, I’m still not sure. Mostly, my goal is to write something interesting at least once a week that my friends and family will enjoy. There are a couple of meta-themes I’m playing with. We’ll see how it evolves…

That said, I did spend a lot of time setting this page up and I’m particularly proud of the integrated location tracking feature (in the sidebar). Since I’m on the road about 80% of the time I’m hoping my friends will use this to to remind me of the beer I owe them whenever I’m nearby…

Welcome!
