If someone were to say this to you, what do you think they mean? I don’t know where the idea came from, but this concept jumped in my head months ago and never left. The question was posed, open-ended but persistent. I posted an initial thought on Facebook and got some cool replies. I mused […]
To The Last Three Years
(This post is much more personal than my normal posts. It was a little scary to write and publish, but I’ve decided this vulnerability is a good thing. Maybe it will inspire you to embrace your own vulnerabilities. Cheers.) What makes someone stop blogging and what makes someone start again? I can tell you about […]
What I’ve Been Up To
For a number of reasons, I’ve paused writing new posts on here. I have a few half-finished, but haven’t sat down and knocked them out. Hopefully I’ll finish one of them soon, but I will keep this page updated with other articles/podcasts/presentations in the meantime so you can know what I’m up to!

Google I/O 2013 was last week. They announced a slew of new features for Android, Chrome, Google+, Maps, etc, and it was capped by a two-hour long Q&A with one of Google’s founders, Larry Page.
