There is a real sense in which this site has been the most constant part of my life since 2005. During that time, I moved from Vancouver to Oxford to Ottawa to Toronto. The group of people who I spent time with shifted several times. I moved from school to employment – from shooting using a Canon A510 point and shoot digital camera to using a 5D Mk II – from exploring the British isles by minibus to exploring North America by Greyhound.
The content has shifted somewhat, the banners have changed, but this is still basically the same thing it was six years ago – a way to stay in touch with friends around the world, discuss ideas, and generally think things through by writing them down.
I have enjoyed following this journey with you through your blog. It has also become one of the constants for me. It is interesting how the internet has created such “homes”.
Particularly for those of us who try to minimize pollution-generating travel, the internet has become an essential way to maintain social relationships.
