Thanks for all
the comments and emails. I essentially set up this blog quickly over
the holiday weekend and threw it up just to see what push back I would
get.
This is actually by third WordPress blog. One is in philosophy
(starting somewhere around 13 years old, I read a lot in two
areas–electronics and philosophy) and one is a blog teaching ministry
of my church. I’ve been trying to get the church to adopt things such
as blogging, podcasting, online video and the like. We’re doing a lot
of that. I don’t have lots of time, so I don’t really devote the design
time that I should to all these. This blog will be moving to
automationworld.com when we unveil an updated site shortly. I just got
impatient waiting.
I’ve been an editor for just over 10 years and can still remember
what my needs were during my “working” lfe. My introduction to producs
coverage as an editor was that pretty much they take a junior editor or
writer and have them rewrite a product press release into AP style
removing unsubstantiated superlatives and that was it. No context. No
mention of significance. But in the end, users are really interested in
products because that’s what you wind up buying to actually do
something. Therefore I borrowed ideas from following the technology
space and started this. Over time you’ll see contributions by many
other AW editors. To get started, it’ll be just another Gary blog
Keep the thoughts coming. Check out Tony’s addition to open source
projects, by the way. I appreciate the input. If you have ideas for
improvement, please send. Or things you’d like to see covered.
