This has led to something which I want to correct; missing out the enjoyable act of blogging here!<\/p>\n<h5>What&#8217;s the plan, Stan?<\/h5>\n<p>In response I am going to try a little experiment based on the theory of &#8220;little and often&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to my traditional &#8220;epic saga&#8221; posts, I will be producing a new post series I&#8217;m calling #TekBytes. Not quite Twitter-style microblogging, but more regular, bite-sized chunks of content. No more than a few paragraphs or a couple of hundred words per post, based on observations and challenges I see day to day in my role as a multi-cloud solutions architect.<\/p>\n<p>That doesn&#8217;t mean it will all be cloudy of course, just whatever comes to mind and I can get down into a post in a few minutes, possibly even from my phone! Some of them might even only be questions for you, the readers!<\/p>\n<p>And before you ask&#8230; of course there will still be terrible memes! \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2216\" src=\"http:\/\/tekhead.it\/wp-uploads\/www.tekhead.org\/2018\/02\/terrible-memes-300x229.jpg\" alt=\"terrible-memes\" width=\"300\" height=\"229\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tekhead.it\/wp-uploads\/www.tekhead.org\/2018\/02\/terrible-memes-300x229.jpg 300w, https:\/\/tekhead.it\/wp-uploads\/www.tekhead.org\/2018\/02\/terrible-memes-150x114.jpg 150w, https:\/\/tekhead.it\/wp-uploads\/www.tekhead.org\/2018\/02\/terrible-memes.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Thoughts?
