The Transformed is 2!

Awwww…look at her…isn’t she so cute…how quickly she has grown. Two years running, and it keeps getting better. Made some good visual changes this year, switched from Blogger to Wordpress, and it seems that I am finding out more and more what it means to be a good converstational blogger. I am trying to learn more how to draw people into conversations by changing the way I write as well as allowing those who wish to hang out without commenting to do so.

This past year in the blogosphere has experienced a lack of hope that this blogging thing could actually help facilitate healthy conversation and create a safe place for ideas to be exchanged. Doug Pagitt packed his things and left, declaring that blogs do more harm than good. I definitely understand his frustrations, but I don’t yet want to give up. I have seen many helpful conversations in the blogosphere and I hope to add to them with this blog. Thanks to all of you who type a couple of letters or click a link to get here. This calls for a toast. Pour the champagne and raise your glasses: here’s to hope, and many healthy conversations in year 3!
