I’m starting this new year with a lot of changes to this blog.
I’m moving all my photography tutorial posts to a new blog, www.beginnersphotographyguide.info, to better organize my posts directed at beginners in photography. If you want to learn how to start, prosper in and enjoy photography, check that new site or click the RSS feed on the right sidebar of this blog.
I’m also writing a new and separate blog where I will be documenting my efforts to lose weight, be fit and stay healthy. If you’re curious if I succeed or not, check it out at http://myhealthandfitness.info or again, just click on the RSS feed on the right sidebar.
So what’s left to write here in my official blog? A lot, actually. I’ll be sharing more insights on photography, technology and life in general, something I haven’t done in the past year.
Thanks for reading my blog, and come back for more! Subscribe to my RSS feed to be updated with my latest post.
Thanks and have a happy new year!

First off, I checked the inbox in my Yahoo! email account. I selected the last forwarded messages I received. Here are the subjects of those emails, you might recognize them:
