Me – A blogger – Who would have thunk?

by Donald Feinberg  |  April 17, 2009  |  4 Comments

The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines curmudgeon as “Archaic”.  That’s me – sometimes.  Many of the open source bloggers might agree.  In years past, they all thought I was a curmudgeon.  Go ahead Tony – laugh.  But I can come around – although I still believe that companies like to make money and developers like a pay check.  When it comes to blogging – that is not me – or so I thought.  I do not read blogs and this is my first attempt at writing one.  Funny that two years ago, I won an award in our group for being mentioned more than anyone else in blogs that year!  And this, when I never read blogs or comment on them. So the curmudgeon changes again and here I am with my own blog. 

Tchau
