This is a “hairball” post you can ignore. However, this post does trace my thinking about how to scale webmaster communication. Part of me wants to start answering questions I get via email by stripping out the identifying information and then replying with a blog post.

This is a harmless “hairball” post I had as a draft. Me: Hey, they added me to popurls.com! My wife: Never heard of it. (pause) Had you heard of it before? Me: Yeah. Wife: Really? Me: Yeah! Wife: (with an extra helping of sarcasm) Really? Me: Yes! Wife: (dripping with condescension) You’re a very important [...]

Note: this is a “hairball” post and you can ignore it. I was so proud of my first one million steps with a pre-Fitbit pedometer. Now I’ve done 13 million steps and it’s just kind of normal. For the record, the Fitbit is a great little pedometer, but I tend to lose one every few [...]

My grandfather has been seriously ill this week, so I’m flying tonight to be with him in Tennessee. If you’re waiting on me for a reply about something, it will probably need to wait. I still hope to attend PubCon next week but I can’t promise that I’ll be able to make it. Added: My [...]

Updated: Okay, there’s a new plan. My wife is having surgery to put a screw in her foot, and the operation is two days before my panel. I really can’t leave her to come to SXSW. We’re going to try for me to Skype in to the panel instead. Cross your fingers. Every so often [...]
