Hey all! As you can see, there have been some minor changes on The Dojo. The most obvious is that you may have noticed I’m starting to post images. I’m fiddling around with my new Nokia N900 and checking out the PixelPipe service. Very cool on both fronts. The second thing you may have noted is that I have removed all ads from the site. I will no longer be taking ads for The Dojo. Its a decision I made based on my values. Aside from writing and blogging and working on various projects, I am employed. Its not my job which influenced me to remove ads. I did that on my own, but I feel that it is important to offer full disclosure.

The same goes for my reviews and opinions. The words on The Dojo are all mine and have never been influenced by anyone or anything else. You may wonder why I bring this up, and its really nothing. I just came to the conclusion that I needed to better represent myself and who I am as an individual, and I’m not about ads and such. I do receive gear and software from a large number of vendors. Some of it I get to keep. The rest I have to send back. That’s just the way it is. In the PR community, I am considered a journalist, and I’ve worked for nearly 10 years to forge those relationships.

I simply felt it was important to clarify these things in case they were unclear to begin with. Maybe the FCC will take note
