Back to Writing (or Sharing)

The past month has been a lot busier than expected. Unfortunately, outside of work, there wasn’t time for on-the-side research. While I’d rather post something insightful, I like sharing posts, because I hope something might catch the interest of a reader as well as storing information for me in the future (I might see how Mendeley stores online news — it’d be better for readers (at least for the most part) if I limit what I share and it’d better for me in that I’ve then consolidated what I have in a central location).

With a huge backlog of posts for the past months, here goes:
