Thanks, Jack. As a novice to blogging and web design, I used a web designer to create the template and had no idea there was attribution to set in place. This will be rectified shortly.

Nice blog, quick comment (sorry it'll probably come across as snarky, not meant that way...):

When you use someone else's WordPress Theme (looks like yours is Grid Focus) you should probably attribute it in the footer. I know that the template comes with the footer attribution in place so it should be something pretty easy for you to put back in. I'm sure Derek Punsalen (the Grid Focus author) would appreciate the credit.

Best of luck with your blog, it looks really interesting.

Jack

Thx, Jane. You should expect quality over quantity. As a prof, your perspective on ed tech, the timeliness of innovation in HE and the role that the private sector could/should play is very relevant. Thx for the comment and stay tuned. BTW, if there is a particular topic that is worth opining on herein, please do avail.

Congrats on the new venture Frank. As an active academic, I've come to rely on your tweets on new tech and up-to-the-minute policy reports. Us profs are often behind the times although we may be in front of the classroom. I look forward to following your writing now that you have more than 140 characters to work with.

Chris: Thx for commenting. The 'sign off' is definitely apt for a variety of
settings and does conjure up very real memories from undergrad days. Hoping
back at you. And thx for helping me build out content ideas & refinements
therearound.

Frank,
Looking forward to following this blog. Interestingly, I use the same Hill Street Blues “sign off” when I close the weekly team meetings we have with our team that is scattered across the U.S. Hope all is well with you.

Great comment. As I endeavor to find my voice in the blogosphere, I will
also attempt to bundle in media that will purport a more visual, interactive
authenticity. Hope you'll consider bearing with me as I get my 'sea legs'
and thanks again for the great feedback. BTW, I, too, like the

Hi Frank, I like your twitter posts and other than David Troy, you are the only VC that I follow. As you know, the blogosphere is a tough playground.

I might follow your blog but visually I prefer bloggers that are a little easier on the eyes like: http://ma.tt/
or even http://www.princeofdundalk.blogspot.com/

What I am saying is, you have to get out your camera and let us see what a VC's life is all about.
