Starting a Blog

A couple of years ago I followed two blogs religiously: Bert Stovers “Reporting for Duty” and Melissa Plaut’s “New York Hack”. They were very interesting and I could hardly wait for a new post particularly in Bert’s case where he was a National Guard helicopter pilot who got called up to fly in Iraq and he relayed his whole experience from being notified to his time in Iraq and return home. I even started a Blog with my son called “Andy and Me” but he lost interest in updating the blog with his dad and before you knew it our blogging days were over. So what possesses me to now start a blog – well two words Social Networking – a rather new phenomenon in business to connect with others using various forms of technology – blogs, Facebook, Twitter etc. So on the eve of my 20th anniversary at Morningside I thought this a good time to reflect on the changes in vocational rehabilitation from the viewpoint of a community rehabilitation program.
