Welcome 2011
by Tim on January 21, 2011
A new year and a new start, so here is the obligatory new blog. This year sees the final and necessary step in my long, drawn out plan to step into the world of freelancing and start-ups. Actually doing it.
In the year ahead I am looking forward to working with many of the friends I have met online and in person at Geekup, many BarCamps, PodCamps, hackathons and conferences. From a technology perspective, I would like to make full use of the tools and APIs I have been using in my projects rather than the more conventional enterprise technology stacks.
As well as different people and tools I am also looking forward to a change in lifestyle with a reduced commute to the office and a better work/life/wife balance. As I type, Ryan is sat next to me doing some virtual painting :-)
This blog will, from time to time, be an outlet for unashamedly geeky content, but for today, it looks like I have successfully managed to avoid a long list of geeky tech-speak.
Anyhoo, I must dash and crack on.

here here Tim – more time at home for more (or enough) money. Well done mate and good luck!
You can now do “business lunches” – fancy a pint sometime?
