The welcome back post
While it appears that I have completely abandoned my blog, its not as it looks. I have been involved in lots of exploration (online tools, social media, blogging etc.) and digging (some may call it soul searching) as to what I want this blog to be about. And I have come up with some ideas. So, […]
