Spent most of yesterday morning working on a web page for Reston Digital, the consulting business that I haven't spent much time fostering. It replaces my Personal homepage, so am hoping that it didn't cause any problems for anyone trying to reach that page. There is a link on the new page, so with luck it can be found.

Realize now how careful one must be when talking to the press. Make it short, and stress the important concepts. I was recently interview by two reporters about the trail committee on which I serve as a volunteer. One of the articles, which discussed changes in a trails plan, got part of the story wrong, and stressed a relatively minor part of the planned changes. We'll see what feedback I get, if any. The second article (there are 3 local, free newspapers in this area) is much more thorough and accurate. I could tell by the interview that the reporter asked more comprehensive questions, and I hoped that she would tell the story in a more complete way and she did.
