I've switched over to a new website for mbarrick.net. It's still very shy of content at the moment, and it is going to take time to slowly populate it. The general intent is to make my personal website the hub for all my data and I will be working building up automated processes to keep everything (Twitter, Flickr, Blogger, LiveJournal, Facebook, etc.) connected and in synch, which is a pretty major undertaking that's only going to be possible if I bite off small chunks rather that try and do it all at once.

I just got back from a photographers' flea market in the wilds of suburbia where people have basements and garages to fill with stuff they never use and later sell at flea markets.
The score of the day? M42-mount Tonika f5.5 300 mm lens for.... $10!! I was looking at one of these on eBay a few months ago for an order of magnitude more money.

We'll be happy to send spring along just as soon as we are done with it.
