Blogging again...Does Travel inhibit blogging?
I believe in blogging and the power of Citizen Journalism. Heck, I worked my tail off (and burned through a few karma points) at one time to help make sure blogs.sun.com happened at Sun. I did the same when I first arrived at Intel, and since IMHO Intel is somewhat "PR Challenged" its probably news to most of you that they did launch an IT-focused blogspace a few months ago. I was invited to blog on it...but frankly was in a blogging slump at the time. Oh, I started a few posts, but never actually published them because they just didn't seem all that interesting. And the interesting stuff I wasn't supposed to blog about.
For the past few weeks I've had a chest cold that just wouldn't go away. Maybe I picked up a designer bug somewhere in the world? I don't know. I do know that I've been 'grounded' (as in not flying at all) since Labor Day...and now I'm blogging again! To tell the truth I started bloggign so my family would be able to track where I was in the world. Now I use Flickr for that (one great picture being worth a thousand blogs). But just in the past week I find I really want to communicate via blog again. Will it last once I'm up and traveling again? Guess we'll just have to see.

Traveling is great: new places, new people, new traditions. But nowadays it is getting difficult to travel because of the safety measures. Everyone needs to pass a clearance check before getting visa. I’ve heard that the British Embassy requires scanned before issuing visas ( http://www.huliq.com/288/printed-for-travel-uk-introduces-finger-scan-for-visa-applicantsfingerprints ). This is good for the security, but I bet this will make difficulties for travelers.

Thank you for that article at HULIQ, it's very interesting. I think we need to make less restrictions for people to communicate, but that raises another question how to fight terror?
