An attempt to bring organic social networking back
Those who have been following along may know that I started this blog as a way to escape social media and bring back an old form of online connections through blogs and RSS. In my opinion it has been super successful and I've thoroughly enjoyed meeting so many wonderful people. My list of feeds continue to grow as I follow more and more people, so never stop reaching out if you want to say hi!…

A journey down a deep rabbit hole thanks to cassette tapes
Updates from the Bridge: I absolutely loved this video . Speaks to where the internet was and where it's going. The good, the bad, the ugly, and yet a note of why it's still worth building.

Pushing forward the consumption of content without the invasion of privacy
For a long time I was a craft beer guy, but as I reached my thirties beer just left me feeling dehydrated and groggy. I started picking up Lidl wine for a whopping $3 and it tasted fine to me. Over time I slowly started spending a little more for a bottle of wine, maybe $20 if I was feeling fancy . A lot of this changed when I moved to our current house.
