On Monday, my family and I will be moving to Seattle. I'm taking a position with Microsoft's Live Labs. I'm really excited by this new opportunity and very much looking forward to starting life in Seattle. I'd been thinking for a while about how to break this news on my blog. Right now, I've just finished cleaning up our house after a small party to say farewell to friends, so I'm going to leave this post short. Posting will probably be light for about a week.
Welcome to the neighborhood. I hope you will continue blogging after you join Microsoft?

Congratulations on the new job - the Microsoft Live Labs are definately going to be a great place to work over the next few years.
Hopefully you still have time, and the ability to keep this blog up and running - it has been one of my favourite reads for a while now.

Congrats!
It's always good to have fine people with big companies, with the power to affect the entire web-sphere!

Welcome to the Pacific Northwest! Hope your move is a smooth one. If you like asian food, might I recommend a little place called Regent Bakery and Cafe. It's near the main MS campus. If you'd like other recommendations feel free to email me!

Thanks to everyone for your kind words! I really appreciate them. To answer the key question - yes, this blog will continue after the move!
