It’s been a year since Nick Korte and I published the 30-minute “Podcast Trailer” for the Nerd Journey podcast. It’s been a terrific year of hard work, interacting with fascinating people, and personal growth. I wanted to take a moment to reflect on the past year of podcasting in the hopes that it might benefit someone else who’s thinking about getting involved in the extended community of technologists. You can read Nick’s thoughts about this year in his Network Nerd blog post, “The Journey Continues … A Year Later” and listen to our first anniversary review podcast episode here. This inspired me to reflect on the origins of the podcast and talk a bit about the early days. Hopefully others can learn from some of what we did. I’d also like to reflect on the evolution of the podcast and myself. It’s been an interesting journey of introspection and self-discovery. Finally, I’d like to look forward to what I see for us on the horizon. I can’t say I’ve ever measured my guesses about the future, but maybe I can start with goals and progress to guesses as well.
