Entering the blogosphere

After 10 years of doing web work, I'm making the leap to Web 2.0: I'm entering the blogosphere. The occasion: my upcoming return to graduate school. For the first time in my life, I'll be living outside of the beltway. It's off to the city of brotherly love, Philadelphia, for a history Ph.D. Hence the title of this blog.

There are a few reasons I decided a blog would be appropriate, besides just keeping up with the times. I've been following the scattered blogs out there about academia, particularly those that address technology, and I'd like to become part of that dialogue. So, I'll be writing about both my interests in American history and in technology. Also, as I leave D.C., I want to document life in Philly.
