    I joined 2000 Bloggers early in the thread as the meme was about to catch fire. Only the SEO experts knew what it was going to do, the rest of us have just been enjoying the weird and interesting event. I thought it would be nice to follow what some of the 2kB‘rs are doing…

    Wall-what? Hog? Like taking up space? That’s right, another beautiful concept from [Mark Seremet](http://markeseremet.blogspot.com/index.html), [Wallhogs](http://www.wallhogs.com/) takes media and makes it _big_. How big? As Mark will tell you, “[..] from 24″ to 7 feet tall X up to 52″”. Back in the early days of digital media transfer I used to get my art printed…

    Finally caught some free wi-fi in the [Grumpies](http://cafegrumpy.com “Cafe Grumpy”). Quickly checking my email in detail, saying hi to a few in IM, responding to some [flickr](http://www.flickr.com/photos/ciordia/), but about to brave the cold and windy streets again to catch the Mary Poppins play. The [GTD](http://www.davidco.com) seminar was fantastic and I’m processing notes for a writeup…

Arriving Wednesday leaving Sunday, we’ve got to hunker down to a [David Allen](http://www.davidco.com) [seminar](http://www.davidco.com/seminars/seminar_the_roadmap.php) on Thursday. Robin’s really been getting into the GTD swing and once we’re both equalized…

    It might have been cold but we rose midmorning to head down to [Skydive Carolina](http://www.skydivecarolina.com). The winds were calm and I was psyched to get a few jumps in. I had packed my day-bag with care that it might be windy I would have everything I needed to work. Of course with that much consideration…

    With a fond good-bye I have left [typo](http://www.typosphere.org/) for [wordpress](http://www.wordpress.net). It really is fond because I enjoyed what typo brought to the scene. It’s amazing blip on the radar at a time when RoR was taking off and the things it employed were beyond anything before it. Unfortunately the talented gang of developers has dwindled…

    We’ve gone and done it now. After 10mos of being sequestered we’re letting ourselves out of the cage and are taking our act on the road. You have the opportunity to come surf the maelstrom of a developing company, [Nuance Labs, Inc.](http://blog.nuancelabs.com). The thoughts and trials behind a startup that has some far reaching ambitions…
