Hello World!

It seemed appropriate to start with “hello world” since this is a new incarnation of havahula.org (v5.0). I’m doing this as I leave behind my consulting practice for a new DC-based start-up that will focus on large format data visualizations (web 3.0 stuff — tell your friends). And while there’s more that will be said about this in the coming months, for now it’s just “hello” and a redesign of this site.

As for the redesign, you’re looking at it! It’s main focal point is a blog, which I am thinking of as a framework for understanding the concept of what I am calling “evolutionary technology” or, “how the current technology explosion is shaping our evolution as a species.” If that doesn’t quite sit well with you, then you can just call it a “blog,” and, I hope, still find value at the end of the day. Whatever works.

One thing I am shooting for; a rule of three. In general, entries should only be three paragraphs max — if an idea can’t be clearly articulated in that span then I’m not working hard enough for clarity. When possible, I’ll find some other way to communicate. Maybe a visualization or a photograph. Regardless, I hope you’ll think about subscribing via email, RSS or, the occasional tweet!
