2009 Year in Review

As best I can recall.

JAN: Celebrate New Year’s Eve in Nathan Phillips Square with Erin. TTCupdates hits 300 followers on Twitter and is featured on Torontoist and Spacing.

FEB: Moved into the new apartment. CityNews writes an extremely nice article about TTCupdates. Attended Twestival and made a ton of new friends.

MAR: TTCu desktop widget completed and made available. Metro does a story on @ttcu_community. I go curling for the first time and love it.

APR: Attended MeshU, thanks to the team at Sprouter.

MAY: Spoke about TTCupdates at Refresh Events. Was nervous, but loved the experience.

JUN: Met Amber and Tavis’ new dog, Murphy, for the first time. Started working at Espresso. Loved it immediately. Went camping.

JUL: Took part in Relay for Life. Visited Niagara Falls with Whitney. Went camping.

AUG: Went camping.

SEP: First Infiltrator portrait taken. Went whitewater rafting for the first time. Gained confidence in my ability to not drown. Went camping.

OCT: Built the site for, and participated in, Walk a Mile. Hurt my feet. Helped a great cause. Dressed up as Balloon Boy for Halloween.

NOV: Created a Google Map of Toronto’s wards using newly-available city data. Created a similar map of every single TTC stop.

DEC: Bought an iPhone. Put up the apartment’s first Christmas tree. Relaxed and enjoyed the company of loved ones. Contemplated getting back into blogging.

Two months later: Finally wrote something. Welcome to the new blog.
