For a long time, I thought this blog was going to end. I was sad about it, too. I hate it when blogs just die off like that. OK, we had 2.56 readers, but that's okay. I like posting here. It makes me remember the beginning of it all. Blogging, I mean. Back in 2006, that is, when we started this blog. And it morphed, sort of, into http://www.design-kompany.com. You could say that became its own little personality, or you could say we got distracted trying to figure out our lives as a couple in business together selling graphic design services. So much has changed. In 2010, we are now a couple helping people find their brand voice, and we're also parents. No we don't have a baby blog. Nor did we send out the ceremonious e-mail announcement when he came. But we did splurge on some nice letterpressed ones and sent them via regular mail. The old fashioned way. For correspondences that mean something, carry a little more heft than just a quick dashed off, maybe some typos but who cares kind of e-mail. And yeah---in handwriting. If you're a letter writer, you know what I'm talking about. At its best, e-mail can only carry so much weight. You don't see or feel the movements in a page of handwriting. It's so dry and digital. I should stop typing this now. No more e-mail personal stuff. There's a better medium for telling our heart-to-heart stories.
