After a long hiatus, during which I have been busy working and traveling the world, I return to this site to blog on foresight and futures again. During my time away, I have not been idle. I have visited nine new countries, climbed mountains, learned to scuba dive, backpacked jungles, and so many more adventures.
On the futures front, I finished my MS in Strategic Foresight from the University of Houston in 2021 and have completed some very interesting foresight projects, for third parties and also for my employer.
I admit too that, since 2016, I put a lot of my focus on political activism, which was somewhat new to me, but which I felt was critical given the outcome of that year’s US presidential election.
Finally, another factor in my blog hiatus is that I lost my Kiteba.com domain name about five years ago to some Japanese domain collector who tried to sell it back to me at an illogical price. But good news … they just this month dropped it, and I snagged it back on the open market. Definitely a lesson here: keep on top of your domain renewals.
Anyway, much has transpired with me and with the world since I last posted. I’ll share my thoughts as I get back into blogging here, which I hope will be more regular.
