What Is This?

I'm starting over. The old blog at DosGatos.net is going to migrate to here, XumaTek.blogspot.com. I had somewhat given up on the old blog on my own server because I was overwhelmed with spam and didn't want to deal with it. Maybe a new environment will cure that problem.

Of course, I would have liked to have dosgatos.blogspot.com but it was taken a long time ago. That's what happens when you move at glacier like speeds. By the way, the owner of dosgatos.blogspot.com made one post eight years ago and that's it. 

So why XumaTek? Well, I own the URL, xumatek.com (and .net, etc.); it is the short name of my company, Xuma Technology Corporation; it is on my license plate; and it is my primary Gmail account. On the other hand, the company is folding at the end of the year (after a run of 27 years) so there is that loss of continuity in the name. The only real problem with using the name XumaTek is that most of my posts going forward will not have much to do with the old business, or even technology. Instead, this blog will focus more on photography and travel (and the occasional miscellaneous topic).

This is why the old blog was called DosGatos - Bella and Hank doing what they do best!
