Sometimes it takes a little while to get a blog post up. Franco Folini from the NovEdge Blog last posted on December 17th, 2007. Ya see, he’s been busy… creating THE MOTHER OF ALL CAD DIRECTORIES
… IN THE WORLD!
I’m sure he’s tired, passed out on the floor, waiting for you to tell him to stop groveling and get back to postin’ the interviews with interesting people. I hope he does also and throws in some other posts with his own opinions about this craziness.
While you’re waiting though, check out the new NovEdge Pulse, you’ll be able to put some faces to the names and blogs. These are the one’s I read that had photos associated with them… yes I listed mine first. Oh, and don’t worry, I’m actually not that pensive looking in real life… I was concerned about some children being tortured by a squirrel in a nearby tree.
UPDATE: Franco was instantly inspired by this post and created a page that has photos of ALL the bloggers. Check out the Blogger Directory.

Hi Josh,
Thank you for posting about Novedge pulse.
You got it right! The most challenging part of Pulse was to associate a face to each of the more than one hundred bloggers I re-publish on Pulse. I like to see a face attached to an article, and I assume it is the same for Pulse readers.

Hey Josh,
That is a funny picture of yours! It’s the expression on your face. Great! Don’t worry, I’m sure we all have plenty of those. The one I put on my blog I had to steal it from last year’s Mother’s Day picture because it was the only semi-decent one that I had. My husband is a horrible photographer and so he always captures my “funny” side, if you know what I mean.
