Cracked open my Google Reader..

And have discovered quite a few of the blogs I used to read have disappeared. Gone. Off into the mists. Nothing there. (You get the idea.)

While on the one hand that's a reminder that I can't expect to keep up with other people strictly through their blogs.. I need to log in and say "Hi", or fire up the email, or in some cases the phone.

On the other hand it shows how thinly I've let some connections get.

In RL I've got relatives that don't know anything that's going on for me except for the annual xmas newsletter.. when I manage to get one out. I've put off returning some family calls.. for years.

Rather than kick myself.. at least too much.. I'm forgiving myself. I've been swamped trying to build out a professional network, applying for jobs, just trying to keep things going. And rather than making some kind of grand pledge to do things different going forward.. I'll just try to reach out and say "Hi" when I can.. and hope people are understanding and say "hi" back.
