Let's Stick a Fork In, Shall We?

Congratulations and "I'm sorry" to the persons who kept up with reading my consistently-inconsistent posts about working in IT. I'm not keeping this place up - I know it and now it's time for me to clean house.

The big news - for me at least - is that I've accepted a new position in a new location that begins two weeks from today. I'll be putting "IT Manager" on my resume for the first time and the circumstances which got me here are so weird that they defy description.

After several months of weekly posts to Valleywag, I've decided to take a mentor's advice and kill this blog. Even though the real reason I haven't been posting over here is that the soon-to-be-previous day job takes 110% of my attention 110% of the time and slicing out pieces of wisdom I've gained is getting more difficult all the time, I realize that there's a deeper truth and it's time for me to face it.

So the future of this place will pretty much become a repository of processed information - a place to put the gestalt of what I have learned about IT - as I write it, which will not be daily. I think I might have some things to say going forward as little bits and pieces of my last 6 months start wending back through my head but I'm putting a placeholder in right now that says "(Not that it's a surprise to anyone but) I won't be publishing here on a regular basis." I'll still maintain the space as mine if I ever get to a point where I'm back in the game and a soap box is welcome.

Thanks for reading - I will be posting more regularly on my personal blog - http://www.timwoolery.net but that will be of interest to a much smaller community, I am sure.

Cheers!
