The “year in cities” approach to summarising a year is something I adopted from Jason Kottke many years ago. In writing this year’s entry, I realise I somehow drafted but failed to publish 2012 and 2013’s posts; I will have to freshen them up, check they are correct the best I can without the wonderful help of sadly missed Dopplr and send them out into the world.
But for now, 2014. It was a bit of a complicated year and I ended up living in three separate places. Many of these were speaking-related trips, and you can see which conferences I was speaking at on my Lanyrd profile.
