[...] you, Dave Winer. It’s about time. Recently, Doc fixed his feed problems, too, by migrating to WordPress. I’d like to say that they both finally listened to me, but I doubt they even heard me [...]

Doc –

Congrats on the new address. Nice pad.

Does this mean you’ll be in Boston more often now? I know a bowl of a Suan La Chow Show in Central Square with your name on it.

I’m writing now at http://www.21st-century-citizen.com — my old url points there now.

It’s a new blog and I’m still finding my voice. *cough*

Sunrise vs sunset

From your prior days east, you’ll get to remember that sun rise/set is different

I recall moving daughter to Boston (drove the U-Haul for her and roomates), June or so, seems like sunrise was 4AM! (likely not… just hit my hotel window very early), winter sunset very early.
But since I live on far west edge of Eastern Zone, it skews perception.

Other : just read piece on demographics economist.com), esp. Japan and problem with MANDITORY retirement at 60!

Ciao

Wordpress is great. You can have a lot of fun with themes and plugins out there. The newest version is coming out in August. I like your other blog too though so I’m not sure which I’d rather see you keep.

Thanks Dave, Phil, Chip, everybody.

I agree that this is will be an interesting place to blog from. Certainly the interactivity will be a lot higher, just to begin with.

I wonder if blogs flying under the Harvard “Veritas” motto hold a higher editorial standard than the rest of us… Great branding for blogging of any sort.

As a subscriber to Linux Journal and to your previous blog, I say Welcome to the world of Wordpress. See where Dsve Winer is one of those getting you settled in.Dave had a great session at Wordcamp 2007 which he ran sort of like a blog, he would talk about something like say “facebook” and then invite discussion on it which is sot of like “posting Content” anf then allowing “comments” on the post. Best of luck on your switchover to the East Coast.

And all ya got for yer birthday was a new blog … (VBG)

Nephew lives in Arlington – likes it.
Daughter moved from Brookline to Los Altos (but she, husband and my grandson are still Sox/Pats/Bruins/Celts fans) last Feb.

Winters won’t be as nice as Calif, but you’ll enjoy spring!

Best to all the Searls clan

And with a switch like this (left for right coast) don’t try to fool me that you are getting old!

Ciao

Doc, I think it’s also going to be good for the blogging community at Berkman to have you blogging from this space. I can already see you as a catalyst for change. And because you’re on a blogging platform a lot of people are comfortable with, you’re likely to see a lot of changes in how readers interact with you. Maybe it won’t all be for the best, but there will certainly be more of it!
