Last blog post

First of all, I don't consider myself a blogger. This is primarily because I'm not socially active within the online blogging community. Sure, I've got blogging friends, but their participation is far more regular and deliberate than mine. This is a bit of a role-reversal for me, since I'm a very social creature personally. But this does not translate in the online world. Unfortunately, my online persona MUST ensure my personal anonymity. Yes, I know that many bloggers are anonymous and VERY social, but my personal cloak of secrecy protects my livelihood, and I fear that sometimes I've crossed the line in my stories of "Life in the Big Box."

So, with this post, I bid all (5 or 6) of my readers adieu. However, with this ending comes a sort of beginning. Although tales of my personal (and thus professional) life will end here, my commentary on all things "Web 2.0" will continue. Underground Media: Reloaded has officially launched, and I think there will be some good things down the pipe. UM was previously a podcast that I did with my good buddy Wxman. UM: Reloaded will be a blog with running commentary on peer2peer, downloading, social networking, broadcatching, podcasting, new techie gadgets, open source, and probably some other stuff. It will also contain links to the new Underground Media podcast. The new podcast will be MUCH more brief (10 minutes), and will feature my weekly updates along with semi-regular commentary from Wxman. The blog should be active if you're reading this, but probably not quite finished yet. Let me know what you guys think!

Signing off....
