this is my blog

something i like about bloomington is that jeff and i both have opportunities to work in the tech field. the things we learn each week are very stimulating and encourage us to want to keep learning.

the few people we’ve met here and hang out with on occasion are tech people too. it is nice for us both to be around people who we can completely geek out with. usually in geek settings i find there is a pressure to know all things. admitting you don’t know how to do something or haven’t experienced the latest thing can ruin your geek reputation. i find the folks here different here largely, i think, because they are all supporters or members of the open source community. there is a natural focus on we can get better software through the experience and values of community.

so i am glad to have opportunities to geek out here. it has inspired me to slowly start designing a few things here and there. i hope to start geeking out on my graphic design again. jeff is starting a web design and tech consultation gig on the side and i was thinking would add my graphic design skills to mix.
