Well, that’s pretty much it from me this year, I’m off until the 4th Jan and am also sworn off weblogs, wikis, CMSs, email, IM, SMS, podcasting, pedagogy, technology, community, digital imaging, multimedia, MySQL databases, PHP, hosting, support, laptops, desktops and any ideas / thoughts / projects / conferences / papers related to any of the above until at least the 3rd :o)
I’ve had a crazy year, professionally more interesting and frustrating than I’ve ever known and personally more devastating, powerful and edifying than I could have every imagined.
Am not sure I ever want another year like 2004, but it’s with hope and belief that I look forward to 2005 and I’d like to share that with all of you out there.

Don’t forget to keep with you, at least, some pen and paper!
Happy, lazy and unfruitful rest for you all ;))
