I don’t know why I find this blogging thing so difficult. I’ve tried to start a personal blog several times and I always fail eventually. But hey, if at first you don’t succeed, forget about it for six months and they try again, right?
My friend Max Cutler suggested trying to do a blog post a day for the entire month. I think that’s a little ambitious, but I’m going to aim for at least a couple posts a week. I’m going to try and enable that by being less restrictive about what I feel is worth posting here – you might see posts about my work at Microsoft, my work on Courant News, my trip to Europe this past summer (with pictures?), my life in Seattle, or just links to interesting things around the Internets.
Speaking of work, I guess it’s worth mentioning at this point that I am a Program Manager on the Windows Embedded Standard team at Microsoft. I’ve been there for about six weeks now and I’m enjoying it quite a lot. I will be writing publicly about what I’m working on and I’ll be sure to post here about it as well. One important thing to note (taken from Scott Hanselman): The opinions expressed herein are my own personal opinions and do not represent my employer’s view in any way. I’ll mention that again in any posts that require a reminder and I’ll leave it in the footer of my design, but I just wanted to be up front about it to avoid any trouble.
Speaking of design, I went for something extremely minimalistic for now. One of the things holding me up from starting blogging again was indecision over picking a design. I don’t love this one, but it will do for now. The design may change if I find something better or my tastes evolve. Try not to be alarmed.
Hopefully this will be the most boring post here and things will go uphill from now on. See you again in a few days.
