2007 was a good year, though a much slower year in terms of posts written.  I was quite busy with work and family but, all in all, it was a good year for shmula.com in terms of traffic.  Keep in mind, that shmula.com is a personal blog; in other words, I write about stuff that I’m interested in and passionate about.  I don’t claim to be an expert in anything nor do I claim that shmula.com is a blog about anything specific.  In sum, shmula.com will contain content on stuff that I care about.
