Trying Something New

The times they are a-changin’.

This post seems to be older than 4 years—a long time on the internet. It might be outdated.

On the occasion of my 33rd birthday, I announced on social media (the irony is not lost on me) that Rachel and I were contemplating how we can keep in touch in deeper and more meaningful ways with our family, friends, and coworkers, and really the effects of social media in general.

I proposed leaving Facebook, Instagram, etc and creating a more private setting (e.g. monthly email and/or friends/family-only blog), hoping you would come along for the ride.

This revamped version of our site, https://AndrewAndRachel.com, attempts to do at least part of that: it’s a private setting that we are encouraging our family and friends (which includes co-workers!) to sign up for to get updates on our life.

To make it as easy as possible, you’ll also be able to receive daily or weekly updates (or both, I suppose).

Note that I will still continue to post here on AFdN, however it will be of the technical flavor.

This is an engineering experiment — not be confused with rigorous scientific experimentation method — so we’ll see how it goes and tweak things as needed.
