Welcome post

Hi - and thanks for stopping by. Please take a second to say hello via the comments.

As you can see, I’ve finally decided to launch a dedicated blog. Those who know me will be aware I’ve been experimenting with blogging long enough to have developed a taste for the habit, but I’ve found myself wanting to express more thoughts along the way than have been suitable to a blog about social cause marketing. I’ve also had a hankering to test-drive Wordpress. While I’ve been a happy user of pmachine/expression engine and have found it flexible enough to launch a successful business on, it is not always convenient for personal use. Plus I want to play around with some of the new tricked-out blog tools that are in the marketplace.

I’ll use this space primarily for thoughts that emerge via my work in the web/publishing 2.0 space, along with personal news and musings that I’d like to share with my community. (You can read my first cut at a charter here.)

Hopefully you’ll become part of my community if you aren’t already, but either way, welcome!
