It launched. Years in the making. Days of brainstorming. It took the work of my best friend Despi Ross to pull it all together. Her husband and brilliant artist, John Ross created the RobotoWear logo. Childhood friend and financial guru, Peter Dunn is on board as CFO. And former colleague and buddy, Matt Gipson handled the web design – which rocks.

Me and O
It’s been a busy past six weeks – a ton of work projects, a fair amount of traveling and very little personal time. Everyone faces the challenge of the balancing a professional and personal life. It’s become a lot harder now that I’m a father and that I’m still a newbie at work (2 months in), but I’m doing pretty well. The blurriness of work/home life got me thinking though.

In my line of work, I better understand the latest Friendster/MySpace/Facebook/Twitter/foursquare/???. I rejoined and looked for Twitter friends based on my interests. Robots, Formula One racing, Design, Travel, Museums and so on. In a weird twist of fate, I found the Museum of Robots. They represented a huge interest of mine and I couldn’t believe it. A healthy obsession began.
