Welcome to twenty twenty wee hee
I'm back, new and improved
Hey everyone!
So, I am quite late with this newsletter and podcast as I was travelling blah blah. But also Twitter owns the service I was using for newsletters (Revue), which meant I needed to look for a replacement. I looked at a few but settled on where all the cool kids were… Substack. Then I noticed they also support podcasts, so migrated my podcast too. I wanted to give a good window of time to ensure everything had migrated, and now finally here we are!
Substack offers a lot of cool new features and options that I am only starting to explore, so the newsletter will change look a little over the next few issues. OK, enough of that, it’s 2023, it’s going to be a great year. Here we go!
