State of the Blog

As 2010 draws to a close, that little creative voice has been whispering ideas for updates. Over the next few weeks, I'll be transitioning a few things away from RapidsNerd and to RapidsBlog, mainly just to make things feel more cohesive. The new blog banner and the name change on Twitter to RapidsBlog are just the start.

I've just noticed in talking with people that when I introduce myself as The Rapids Nerd, I tend to cringe. Not sure why, but when something makes you uncomfortable, you change things so you are comfortable again.

Have I left my Nerd roots? Hardly. I am and always will be a big Nerd who likes geeky, techie stuff. It's ingrained in the nature. And yes, considering the whole looming "Nerd is Cool" pop culture trend, the timing is odd. You'd think I'd revel in it verses change anything.

Bottom line, just going with my gut. All the same stuff will be discussed here (adventures, parks, WoW, restaurants, etc), only the names will change to protect the dorky...sort of. ;)
