And another thing.
Like I don’t have enough things sucking time away from this blog and my family, I’ve teamed up with Jason Perkins to kick his single word domain feed idea up a couple of rungs on the old concept ladder. It’ll look pretty and won’t take too long, I promise.

Sproing.
Most days this web serving thing makes complete sense. Then there are days like today.
