I survived my Internet Vacation and I am back to normal online activity as of this morning. I have a busy day today (you will see why in the subsequent post) but I will post later today or tomorrow about my experience of being completely disconnected from the Internet for a week, and what I learned from it. It wasn’t to difficult to get through the 240 email messages that needed my attention. Not hard to get through the blog comments either. I’m afraid I am not going to catch up on Facebook and Twitter updates over the last week–there are far too many. The real challenge at this point: can I catch up with my RSS feed? As of this moment there are 744 accumulated items. That’s something over 100/day.

Also, thanks to everyone who kept visiting the blog while I was on my vacation. It was nice to see folks visiting and (hopefully) enjoying the posts. More on the vacation itself later.
