I should first apologize by saying that this is nowhere near hilarious.  Gotcha!
<p />
So, after sitting down and writing all of that gibberish on the "Serious" home page, I think my mind melted.  Writing in the third person is an extremely strange thing to be doing.  Not to mention it comes off as looking strangely silly when you know that you wrote it.
<p />
Perhaps some day I'll be famous on Wikipedia, then somebody else can write all of this!
<p />
So, if you've never been to my little site before... who are you?!  And if you have been here before you'll probably wonder why I changed things around.  Earlier this year (2008) I decided to look into some of the social networking sites that have blossomed all around, and changed my blog around a bit.  I changed platforms and actually wrote a few posts - amazing!  I didn't really like Wordpress, and found myself really being entertained by twitter.  So I stopped blogging and started tweeting.  Mostly.
<p />
There was a decision to be made here.  For the most part I've been on the internet under nicknames and such only meeting with a few good friends over the years.  I had to decide whether I should keep that route, or open up and be myself with my own presence under my name.  Well, I've got nothing to hide* so I decided to get out there... err, here.  Yep.
<p />
Also, a stale blog is not friendly.  This instead is a stale web site.  You really shouldn't need or want to come back here often.  It's something to get indexed by search engines and keep in touch with people I know.  I also needed a place to keep some of my information.  I have some articles I've written or want to write, and well, those won't fit on twitter.  I've got contact information for those who need to find me.
<p />
Now, everything else on the serious page is also true.  At first I found it difficult to write a profile of myself, but as I continued I had to leave detail after detail out to keep it semi-short.  So maybe I'll have more to discuss sometime, somewhere else.  Either way enjoy your stay and keep in touch.  Thanks!

Mr. Nevon .--err, Mr. Browder.
