Changing Tides

I apologize for the lack of updates-- my son Dan recently graduated from his University and wasn't exactly "filling his days". It seemed like I'd be out of port for no more than a fortnight before I would have to rush back and solve some crisis... I ended up doing the only thing I could-- I gave him a job at the Bloglantis Foundation, making him our first full-time employee. Being that my primary income is in the form of grants (or really donations, as they're not from institutions) it will be difficult to justify keeping someone on payroll, but I'm leaving it up to Dan to make the business plan. You may notice a few of his cosmetic changes to the website. Soon we will have tools to see how many visitors a day we tally, etc, which will determine our next steps, be it youtube or some other web 2.0 community to raise awareness. You can always show your support by expressing interest in a Bloglantis patch. I head back to sea tonight, under the full moon. --Randy
