I was talking to a former coworker and good friend of mine today. He suggested that I include, in my blog, my experiences of working from home. At my new job I am working from home almost every day. There are certainly many benefits (like fewer trips to the gas pump), but there are also some drawbacks. The most obvious drawback that I have already encountered is the difficulty in collaboration. Essentially, this is part of the reason I started this blog to begin with.
I am new to the bubble-boy environment, so I won't issue any judgments yet. I'll wait a couple of months.
