Some plans:
- keep improving my coding and sysadmin skills
- volunteer those skills a little more, for folks who need 'em.
- make more calls to congress and find ways to contribute to strategy
- aggregate some of the links that pour through twitter and reading.am into summaries and possibly make that into a weekly email
- be kind, even more
- spend a little time each day reading books, now that I basically have them all
