As anticipated, I just didn't have as much time to devote to the blog in February as I did in January, with things getting quite busy offline. I revealed my wife and I are now expecting twins, and are about 20 weeks along. This just might impact future schedules, as can work, travel, etc. During February, I was glad to introduce the new blog design for louisgray.com, and some critical pages which best explain what the blog is about, as well as tracking coverage, and hope to keep advancing forward. On to March!
