Tales of Hoffman has moved. See all my new posts at http://hoffman.blogs.com.
Happy BlogDay to Me....(And I'm MOVING)
Like so many others who stepped "in the pool" after the brave first wave, today is the one year anniversary of Tales of Hoffman -- the blog. I started this thing as an experiment to see: 1) If it would become a creative release for me, since I've always loved writing and hadn't had much of a chance to "work out" in a while; 2) If there was any chance that it would help me expand my horizons as I think about the next places to push Medscape.
In reality, it has become much more than those two things. The very best part of maintaining this blog has been the people I have met. When I started, there were maybe three or four "Doc Bloggers". Now, as you can see from the blogroll, the community is growing, with more activity as each month passes. I never expected the community element of blogging to become as strong as it has, but I was certainly wrong.
Now, it's time to move into the next round of blog-dom (blogiosity? blogistics?). This is the last post I will make at this web address. The new home of Tales of Hoffman is http://hoffman.blogs.com.
There are many reasons behind this switch, but mostly, I've been looking for an alternative to Radio since my hard drive crashed and I lost my database of entries. Also, I've been frustrated by the Radio architecture which requires me to only post using my PC (I know there are ways around that, but getting through my work firewall remotely is problematic).
In any event, the platform really doesn't matter. I sincerely appreciate all the support the medical blogging community has given me. It's a really fun ride and I'm positive that Medscape is a better site for the interactions this blog has brought me.
So...let's keep it going. If you link to me -- Please change your links!. If you subscribe to my RSS Feed -- Please update your subscription! Onward and upward....
