If you know what's good for you, you'll blog and you'll blog often!

The software product I've been doggedly working on for the last year and a half is about to ship. This is the first evening of a long-awaited six-week vacation. I haven't had a summer vacation like this since ... high school?

No better time to kick off my new blog. As I explained in the last post on my neglected political blog, Issuefish, I've been meaning to make the switch to a general-topic blog.

Why unleash another blog on the world? Well, it's not about you guys, it's about me! Scientific American says blogging is good for you! Even so, I hope you'll all find my posts here to be interesting (and, no, this one doesn't count).
