Blogosphere growing
Yes, yes, it’s expanding, increasing, growing so fast it’s exploding, but that’s not the subject of this post. Rastin Mehr is blogging, and that’s A Good Thing™.
Rastin is in the Technology Solutions department at Premier, which I used to lead, and he’s doing all kinds of cool stuff there and on his own.

I blog/Flickr/Del.icio.us, therefore I am.
But it’s great to remember, and it’s fun to share, and it’s interesting to peek.
