As someone who has moved about 3 times in 8 months, I have unfortunately discovered the pains of changing addresses across the broad spectrum of services I am using. I have been thinking lately of something to make this a smaller headache. Much like OpenID makes logging in a more pleasant experience.

But the challenge really is – will anyone use it? And how do I convince people this is a good idea? Maybe good ideas do not need convincing, they just need creating.

Yesterday, I accepted an offer to work at NetSecure Technologies which is a company based in Regina doing Firefox extension and C# work (mainly the former. I never worked with the latter, and they are aware of that). This also means I have to relocate to a city who I know nothing about. In fact, I will likely be a typical snobby Torontoian for the year contract that it is for.

Unfortunately I will be leaving my current employer PPX. Good people. But I am excited about my new job responsibilities, and think it will be a better fit for me.

I came home about a week ago with Toolroom Knights mixed by Mark Knight, instead of my intended target of Mark Oliver. It was OK because I have, and still enjoy, Toolroom Knights mixed by Gabriel and Dresden. Both CD describe themselves as a “journey through the world’s finest house music”. But their styles are so different. I already found it difficult to describe the genre. Now it’s just impossible.
