So long Vox, Hello Blogger!

'Oh, hello, American investor. I see you are interested in distributing Shopster in you home prefecture. You have chosen wisely.'

This blog is a continuation of 'Shopster, Babies, and Bah!' blog over at synch.vox.com. It's all about touting my own horn, giving an insider's view into Shopster, as well as some personal posts now and then.

Here's the first 'manifesto' post from the previous blog:

Between Shopster and the baby, this may be the most interesting year of my entire life.
At Shopster, we are starting to garner some interest and some press now. Well, I shouldn't say we, I should say, the 'Top 3'. If you see a picture of three people in a magazine article about Shopster, that's my arm at the side in the frame, or possibly the back of my head if they did an 'action' shot, with employees in the background.

Alas, if my name is to be recorded in the annuals of computer history beside Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Andy Grove, and, um, that Moore guy that got his own law, my greatness will have to be touted by one lone horn, this voximighty blog. (Moore's lesser known, but equally accurate law: "My sexiness will double every 24 months." It really seems to work for him, either that, or his net worth of 3.7 billion dollars. You know, either / or.)

By the way, as the first employee of Shopster, I have stock options, so if you are making investing decisions based on this blog, well, don't. And two, you can't really jump start an alien spaceship by attaching electrodes to a bunny rabbit's ears. I know, cause it says 'dramatization' right at the bottom of the commercial. At most, you'd get a really angry bunny, and nobody wants that.
