Have you noticed that, with one of the latest updates to Facebook, they’ve added a “Trending” newsfeed? It’s a short list of the top stories that’s setting Facebook abuzzing. I usually ignore it, but every now and then, I’ll spot something that catches my attention. So you can imagine my…
Wow. It has been a wild ride for the past two weeks. I’m sorry that I’ve been absent from this little corner of the Internet, but it wasn’t an intentional absence. If it had been up to me, I would have been here. But my family is just now emerging…
