…this blog has largely become a dumping ground for me to promote the latest and greatest things I’m involved in, with very little insight or commentary.* I’ve been re-reading some of the old posts on this blog, and I have realised that I used to write rather lengthy and impassioned posts about a wide range of things that are interesting or relevant to me. Those essay-style posts are far more entertaining and valuable to me (and, I imagine, to readers as well) than the recent announcement-style posts. It’s too early for a new year’s resolution, but I just wanted to state for the record (and for the handful of readers that might have been with me all along) that I see how this blog has evolved, I’m not too satisfied with it, and will be trying to return to the original tone and range of content. Wish me luck.
* I think there may be a few notable exceptions, but the balance has definitely been tipping as of late.

Welcome to my world, although I’m considering going in the opposite direction, and making mine more bloggy and less essayey. Perhaps.
