Final Post, Unit Structures is moving on.
Posted 8/11/2008 02:51:00 PM |
As I shut down this blog Unit Structures, some quick stats. Over approximately four years, I wrote 614 posts, 311 of which were public, 303 were private. The private posts are largely book/paper reviews, stubs for ideas, and a few posts I pulled back after reflection. You left 1,307 comments - each one hand-vetted by me. I wish I had spent more time responding and hanging out in the comment threads - you've left some truly great, insightful comments (no worries, they've been migrated to the new blog). The most incredible stat is viewership. Since I started keeping track, Unit Structures has been viewed over 500,000 times. Considering most of the papers I write will be read only a few times, it is remarkable to think about this blog's impact in comparison.
A final note - I'm sure many of you have wondered about "chimprawk." Chimprawk (a derivative of Chimp Rock) has been one of my usernames for as long as I can remember - and was the one I decided to use when I created my blogger account. I had no idea of what the blog would become, and if I knew the blog would be part of my professional identity I might have chose a different name. But I'm glad I didn't, and I think my blog's name was a reminder not to take any of this too seriously. This is all an experiment - one I look forward to continuing over at http://fstutzman.com
