No, not me!
I'm sad to see Russ calling it a day. His style of blogging was what attracted many, but it's a costly way to blog. To consistantly produce lengthy, well written, cogently argued pieces almost every day takes a level of commitment that I for one cannot afford to expend on what for me is a hobby site.
I know Russ didn't look at his blog as a mere hobby, personal branding was his style, and he spent considerable time in maintaining and revising not just the content of his blog, but also the style so that it sent out the messages he wanted to impart.
I think Russ's blog has been a great success, it's moved his career forward into the market niche he's sought for a long time, and going out on a high has to be the way to finish. No HTTP Error 447, and no shuffling about threatening to quit, nice one, a neat classy exit. So long Russ, and thanks for all the fish!
