Boston!
I recently accepted a job at The MathWorks and we’ll soon be moving to Boston, MA. (”Soon” being a relative term if you consider the magnitude of this move…)
I’ll be doing more of this usability stuff and I can’t wait for my March 24 start. I’m joining a 30-strong usability team and a huge usability community in the Boston area. The story about how I got this job deserves a post of its own. Stay tuned.
The rest of the family is also excited by the move. Not only is Boston an old city steeped in history, but it also has a much larger Jewish community that we’re looking forward to joining.

Oh my gosh, I just requested to follow you on twitter and then I went to your blog and holy cow you are joining us?? We met at UPA last year, I used to work at Kodak? Small world!

I seriously love how you got this job.
Even funnier, we were almost going to follow you - Morey was a strong contender for the Artistic Director position at the jewish film festival in Boston.
He didn’t get it, so we still get to go Israel!
Brookline, btw, has THE most amazing Trader Joe’s. You can get kosher challah. At Trader Joe’s. *sigh*
