That led me to not only updating my WordPress theme but also taking a look at my embarrassingly outdated web site. I still have a ton of work to do on the site but for now I think the blog is ready for some new content.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>A lot has changed since I started this blog back in 2005, and since I effectively stopped posting to it in 2009. Perhaps the biggest change is that the main topics about which I write went from being relatively unknown to being somewhat common, at least to geekdom at large. And while I&#8217;ve been happily using Twitter to discuss these things, it no longer feels sufficient to me.<\/p>\n<p>That said, I won&#8217;t be posting frequently. I simply don&#8217;t have the bandwidth. If I get two or three decent posts in a month, I&#8217;ll be impressed with myself. I am, however, hoping to use it for other things which don&#8217;t require too much time; like posting work-in-progress images, collections of Twitter comments, re-posts of old blog entries that seem more timely, images from conventions and tradeshows, and other items that may not seem relevant but are probably part of a relatively large narrative I&#8217;ve been trying to build for some years now. More on that later.<\/p>\n<p>In any event, thanks for stopping in and I hope you enjoy the next post: an interview with an old friend and the Vice President of Design at American Standard, Jean-Jacques L&#8217;Henaff, about the 3D printed faucets they developed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So I figured it was time to finally get my ass in gear and start posting again.
