…and a little re-design, too.  It’s about time.  I’ve decided that with the turn of the seasons, I should give this site a spin around the block.  On my list of things to change are:

- The number of feeds this site collects / displays
- The way that this site handles feedback / comments
- The way the flash header looks / feels
- The css that mobile users are served
- The frequency and manner in which I write posts

I’d really like to start recording things more efficiently.  I’ll want to look back on this in a few years and see something that I can learn from.  After all, soon everything will connect to everything.  The walled gardens of data will fall, and every digital device will exchange information through standardized data formats.  The analysis of those complicated and overlapping trends will be amazing tools for learning about ourselves.  Imagine an efficient / meaningful / insightful way to look at the last 5 years.  How bout any number of years.  What’s important to me now is leaving a meaningful and robust set of information to gather.  By the time we can really use it, I’ll probably wish I wrote more.
One of my greatest fears is unknowingly repeating the same mistakes every day, because I don’t have enough perspective to see and correct myself.  Having a blog seems like a great way towards getting the type of insights I’m looking for.  Maybe it’ll change the way I see time passing.
