I hadn’t really intended to start this newsletter when I did, but the sudden implosion of Twitter disrupted what I had hoped would be a more gradual and traditional “after the holidays” timetable.
I’ve been uncharacteristically quiet for the past two weeks, and for good reason: After a couple Covid-related delays, Judy and I were finally able to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. It’s been an absolutely delightful break, but I’m on my way back to the mainland now and ready to get this thing started.
Well, almost.
As of New Year’s Day, 2023, I’m officially a free agent and looking forward to doing some things I haven’t done in a long, long time.
My drafts folder is filled with ideas, but before I write a single word I would like to hear from you all. I’m grateful you signed up for this newsletter and I’d like your input about what comes next. Why are you here? What are you hoping I’ll publish here that will justify your subscription?
There’s a comments button at the bottom of this post. Let’s talk.
I would disagree happily with Lawrence, I think social media is often a bloody waste of all our time. Though I suppose the social media posts might alert people to the work here. Delighted to have a solid tech writer in my reads. Links to important tech stories would be good please.
The only thing I want to hear about for the near term is the “what comes next” as the current era of tech ends — I mean, the crypto scam deflating, Twitter being run into the ground, ditto Meta with the poorly conceived metaverse , the exposure of so many once-wunderkinds as frauds and morons. That is the biggest story out there. It’s all collapsing, but what is next?
