Got Tagged!

Well, I spent about 90 minutes on Skype last night catching up with Matt Bauer, the creator of Rook's Pawn, the totally awesome ROBO-ONE robot. It was really great to chat, and although Matt and I have known each other on the internet for quite a while, this was the first time we've actually been able to hear each others voices.

In addition sharing lots of information and observations, it was also a timely reminder of how public we are when we post things on weblogs. A common interest in robotics is what originally brought us together, and has been the focus of most of our discussions ever since. But, because of the links on my websites, and his innate curiosity , Matt had run across several of my other sites, including this one. So we had the chance to explore other areas of common interest like anime, illustration, photography, and a few others. It was great.

And, I got 'tagged'. By that I mean that the whole conversation was a gentle reminder that I have focused almost exclusively on ROBOTS DREAMS recently while my other weblogs have gone fallow. What a shame. It certainly wasn't intentional, there just aren't enough hours in the day, nor days in the week.
