Soooooo...

It turns out that I'm not going to be moving to my own hosted blog, The Fenix's Nest, because of technical issues and also the need to eat our own dogfood.

I'm actually going to move to Yahoo 360. It's pretty sweet - it's basically a combination of Friendster with Yahoo's own properties, like Launch, Yahoo email and IM, Yahoo Photo ( Read more... )

I started my new job at Yahoo yesterday, and as part of my fresh start, I'm moving my blog over to my own domain. If for some reason you want to keep tabs on my life, feel free to drop by sometime.

So, a stage of my life has come to an end. Next Friday, Feb. 25, is my last day at Omnilux. I've spent three and a half years of my life working at this company. I moved from Denver to Pasadena for this company. I've seen it grow from a 5 person affair stuck in a little room at Idealab to the 40+ company it is today. I've made new friendships ( Read more... )
