so what is polimath?

This post is more for my own thoughts than anything else.  This is probably good considering the fact that nobody knows about the site yet.

I’m hoping that polimath will be a useful site both to me and to those who visit it.  In addition to putting things I learn or discover out there, I’m a strong believer in the value of two-way dialog and hope that the eventual visitors to my site will be of use to me, both in finding direction in my work, and in bringing new knowledge and viewpoints to the table.

The first order of business is getting the site to have a bit of content.  There are a few older projects of mine that it may be ok to reflect on, both to have a log of important lessons learned and to put a few posts in the archives.

After this is done I’ll have to decide what I want the site to look like, and begin writing on my current pursuits.  All of this is done with the hope that publicizing my attempts at work will make me more dedicated to it, which is a pretty big gamble.

And so, the experiment begins.
