Saturday evening ramblings

I drove down to Connecticut this afternoon for my bike ride tomorrow. The organizers have done an awesome job marking the route. I drove around it after arriving and it looks challenging and fun.

You'll notice that I now have a Patient Blogger badge in my sidebar. I applied for this after reading Amy's great post about ethics. I hope this gives you some confidence that I work hard to write a blog that follows these rules.

Tomorrow I'm planning to try a little experiment in live blogging. Recently I signed up for a Jott account. Marston made me do it! This nifty web 2.0 application lets you send messages by calling a toll-free number and talking carefully. I've set it up so that I can Twitter and/or blog from my mobile phone.

So tomorrow during my bike ride I plan to use Jott to update Twitter on how things are going. I may also post to the blog during a rest in the ride. We'll see how well it works in real life.
