Starting today I'll be writing at a new blog location: http://unweary.com/blog/ I've redirected the old RSS feed http://feeds.feedburner.com/davidweiss to the new blog. If you want to subscribe to the shiny new RSS feed http://feeds.feedburner.com/unweary please go right ahead. At some point I'll take down the old RSS feed.
This change includes an upgrade from Blogger to Movable Type as my blogging platform, but if you sensed that there was more to the blog location change than just that, you were right. I'm "going indie", as they say. :-) This is something I've wanted to do for a long time and now is the time to make it official.
I quit working for the MacBU at Microsoft in December 2007 to go back to school. I'm very much enjoying school, and I'm trying hard to keep that my main focus, but I keep wanting to build stuff and publish it and Unweary is just a natural result of that innate desire to create. I expect to build pretty focused, humble, non-life changing software that just makes regular things easier and better in some way. Right now I'm mostly trying to decide which idea to tackle first. I feel like a kid in a candy shop!
So that's the news. I'm sure I'll write more about the adventure as it develops, but in the meantime, wish me luck!
Congrats on going indie! I am working towards that goal myself.
Congratulations - welcome to the indie fold! Best of luck!
I am proud of you son! Going indie is a misnomer though. You have always been and will always be "indie". That is why you are such a great friend, as well as a son. You are moving into the happiest, most prosperous, satisfying and yes, challenging time of our life so far. GOOD FOR YOU! I have high hopes for you.
Dad
Yay, you're back!! I missed you...
:-) Thanks Lyne.
on the way back from EFY, I tried to convince Audrey, Preston, and Nick Cardon that we should detour and go visit you guys....but I was voted down. We miss you guys out here. Plus, what happened to all of the boxes in your office? Did you create some sort of "big art" before you left? :-)
cbuck - I never did have time to do something cool with all those other Mac mini boxes, but I left them so perhaps there's some big art plans in the works! Probably not.
Rexburg isn't really "on the way" to anywhere, but if you happen to be close by, you're welcome any time!
