What is a blog?

Thursday, February 17th, 2011

Yesterday, I was reminded that not everyone is familiar with what exactly a blog is.

• First, it is public, meaning that everyone can read it.
• Second, it is meant to provide thoughtful perspectives, tips, updates, etc.  I am not a fan of blogs that simply post content from articles written by other people, while I see value in posting links to various articles on topics that may interest readers.

Which brings us to – who reads the blog?   (more…)

Duck and Cover California- Things are Getting Shakey!

Friday, January 8th, 2010

During a planning meeting yesterday morning, our ceiling started to shake as if the financial corporation upstairs were having an astro jump party without us. My co-worker asked, “Hey, what IS that? Is it an… an earthquake?” to which someone quickly responded, “You think ONLY the roof would shake if it were an earthquake- oh come on”. Little did we know, just a few miles away, the center of a 4.1 earthquake struck at 10:30am. (more…)

It’s perfect for an occasional overnight guest especially given the fact that there is a full bathroom right next to the bedroom. The second bedroom upstairs has been taken over by my nephew who goes to school in Berkeley and is here every weekend; he loves having his own private space in the house, especially his own attached bathroom.
