			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It seemed appropriate to start with &#8220;<a  title="Wikipedia: It is used in many introductory tutorials for teaching a programming language. Such a program is typically one of the simplest programs possible in a computer language." href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hello_world">hello world</a>&#8221; since this is a new incarnation of havahula.org (v5.0). I&#8217;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 &#8212; tell your friends). And while there&#8217;s more that will be said about this in the coming months, for now it&#8217;s just &#8220;hello&#8221; and a redesign of this site.</p>
<p>As for the redesign, you&#8217;re looking at it! It&#8217;s main focal point is a blog, which I am thinking of as a <a  title="Wikipedia: a basic conceptual structure used to solve or address complex issues." href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Framework">framework</a> for understanding the concept of what I am calling &#8220;evolutionary technology&#8221; or, &#8220;how the current technology explosion is shaping our evolution as a species.&#8221; If that doesn&#8217;t quite sit well with you, then you can just call it a &#8220;blog,&#8221; and, I hope, still find value at the end of the day. Whatever works.</p>
<p>One thing I am shooting for; a rule of three. In general, entries should only be three paragraphs max &#8212; if an idea can&#8217;t be clearly articulated in that span then I&#8217;m not working hard enough for clarity. When possible, I&#8217;ll find some other way to communicate. Maybe a visualization or a photograph. Regardless, I hope you&#8217;ll think about subscribing via <a  class="thickbox" href="http://feedburner.google.com/fb/a/mailverify?uri=havahula&#038;loc=en_US&#038;TB_iframe=true&#038;width=860&#038;height=550">email</a>, <a  class="thickbox" href="http://havahula.org/feed/?TB_iframe=true&#038;width=860&#038;height=550">RSS</a> or, the <a  href="http://twitter.com/havahula">occasional tweet</a>!</p>
