This started as a blog in its most traditional sense: a website with writings of my own informal style and meanderings.

The awesomeness that is Periscope
If you haven't ventured over to Twitter's new brew, you MUST put this on your top priority list. Periscope. Live broadcasts--on a whim, wherever you are, in the moment. I'm over there @kimbultsma, and you can follow my company there, too: @contentalamode. So what do I...
