Hello! Is this thing still on?
It’s been over a year since I last posted here. Much has happened in the last 12 months:
- My second daughter, Ada, was born.
- I bought out my partners in BootStudio.
- I wrapped up a few of my non-work commitments, including my roles in the IA Institute and Boxes and Arrows.
These things are not unrelated.
In parallel, two other important shifts happened during this time:
- Twitter became my main venue for publishing pithy throwaway comments.
- Facebook became my main venue for reconnecting with friends and family.
As a result, I’ve been trying to figure out what role this site plays in my toolbox. I was toying with the idea of discontinuing the blog altogether, and last week even went as far as replacing the homepage with a static one page site with links to my main social media accounts. I regretted it almost immediately.
So this is the deal: I’ll be using this site as a notebook where I will work out half-baked ideas, primarily about (but not limited to) IA and UX design. I hope it’s of interest to someone else, but that won’t be the driving factor. Let’s see where it goes.
