The big day finally arrived, and the wedding went off in Gloucester without a hitch. Liz and I have been absolutely humbled by the number of people that have sent us photos from the wedding. I have put together links to each of the albums below so that we can track them all in one spot. I have also included a link to our professional photos from Sharon’s Studio of Gloucester.
We owe a big thank you for everyone that took photos for us and captured this special day. Despite a few small “hiccups”, the entire day seemed to just fly by! Sorry for the non-”Business” interruption… Now its back to work!

Recently, I noticed that one of my coworkers had submitted a question to LinkedIn Answers, regarding web monitoring. I didn’t see the question until after it was already closed out by LinkedIn, but I responded to him privately. I figured after going to the trouble of outlining all this, I might as well share it with the world:
In my consulting, I have typically suggested a comprehensive plan for getting inside the head of visitors. In my opinion there is not one "all encompassing" solution for monitoring a web site, campaign, or in some cases each persona, since each organization’s objectives are different.

For what seems like the 100th time (more like the 5th), I have migrated my web site to a new framework. I am putting the finishing touches on my new site to take over for my previous Python / Plone-based site. Some people might think this is the absolute craziest time in my life to be taking on such a big project (I am getting married in June, among other things), but thats exactly why "now" is the perfect time to do this. In the next couple months / years I hope to have a lot going on both personally and professionally, so I have restructured things to provide a home for these different audiences and activities. The site is now broken up into two major areas:
- Strictly Business
This community will serve as a home for all things related to my career and professional hobbies. I have a number of small software projects that I have kept around and I plan on releasing here from time to time. Additionally, I believe that a career-focused site is a great way to centralize my involvement in other web communities (YouTube, Flickr, LinkedIn, etc.).
- A Lighter Side…
Although my goal for this area of the site is similar to Strictly Business, I envision that the content and audience will be much different. I plan to use this community as a vehicle to share my personal accomplishments, hobbies, and media. My hope is to share much of the personal content that made it on my previous site that typically focused on Sailing, Labrador Rescue, and family activities.
