Becoming 1 year old
It has now been a year since I began this blog. February 20, 2006.
Since then, I have written nearly 550 posts, providing fresh viewpoints related to telecommunications. Something new almost every day of the year.
I hope I have engaged you as readers, challenged you re-examine industry issues from a different perspective, provoked you to explore alternatives in your own policy convictions, and sometimes entertained you with trivia.
In the course of debate on certain issues, I hope that I have not insulted you and I regret anything that may have caused hurt.
I still consider myself to be new at blogging and believe that most of us, both writers and readers, are still trying to learn how to best use this medium. Thank you for joining me on this exploration.
Certain topics have attracted more attention than others; my posts about internet content blocking and the launch of iPhone drove spikes in traffic. What do you want to hear about?

I think you've been doing a great job: congratulations! You do Thornhill proud...
With regard to issues, it is true that content-oriented stuff gets much more play than telco-oriented stuff. For proof, we need look no further than the very high profile that CanCon rules get in a $3b industry, compared to the relatively arcane status of even well-known issues like the deferral fund, in a $30b industry.
But your discussion of telco issues is much appreciated for that very reason. It may not be as sexy. But it's certainly more unique! So please do keep it up with your telco coverage: you have at least one loyal reader here, anonymous though I be.

I also have been reading your posts for months and have always found them to be very informative. I also happen to know that many incumbents read your posts daily ;)

As "an incumbent that reads your post daily", I too appreciate the telecom coverage. Though I have long been a front line employee in the regulatory and policy side of the business (and as such, have direct and regular access to the material that hardly ever reaches an audiences greater than the impacted companies and the policy makers), I consistently find your blog to be a source of unique insights and hard to come by material.
Please keep it up.
