This is about five days late, but for those few that fol­low my blog, I apol­o­gize for the domain name change from Gotham Bytes to Noel360.

To be hon­est, I like the name, Gotham Bytes. But I changed the name because I didn’t want this blog tied to one place (New York). I’ve always had a love-hate rela­tion­ship with New York. I’ve actu­ally moved in and out of the city in the last 25 years. Five years in Dal­las, three years in Palm Springs, etc. What I’m say­ing is, with my track record, there’s a good prob­a­bil­ity that I might not be liv­ing a New York in five years time. I thought it would be a bit silly to have a blog called Gotham Bytes if I end up in say… Jersey.

Any­way, that’s my story. I changed the name while my blog is still rel­a­tively young. I know it would be vir­tual sui­cide if I change my domain name once it gets trac­tion, indexed, and have many, many link backs. (You gotta have pos­i­tive atti­tude, right?)

Hope you like the new name. I chose it because I know I won’t be chang­ing my first name any­time soon. I also chose 360 because the num­ber has a few good con­no­ta­tions and very easy to remember.
