Bob just sent me a link to the Redis Manifesto via Twitter. He’s was supportive as I vented off some of this week’s frustrations. After reading the link, I believe Bob is right. I need to write the WiX Toolset Manifesto.

If you only follow my blog via the ATOM feed, then you probably missed the fact that http://robmensching.com/ and http://robmensching.com/blog/ have a brand new look. The whole site was rewritten and redesigned. "Why?" you might ask. Read on for why, what went well and what didn’t go so well.

Happy Thanksgiving Day! I hope you have much to be thankful for. This year I added a very healthy baby to my list. He’s the reason there haven’t been any WiX Working Group videos this month. To make up for it, I’ve collected 12 videos of an impressive group of singers bringing techno to a cappella. I don’t really watch TV but this season’s Sing Off introduced the Pentatonix. If you haven’t been following them, I encourage you to watch all episodes from this season. Their final song is outstanding and the build up is awesome.

A week ago today, my wife and I brought our first child into the world. Bradley Reece Mensching was born at 2:44 PM on November 5th 2011. Bradley was 15 days late but arrived a healthy 7 lbs. 3 oz. nonetheless. Mom and baby are doing great as we adjust to our new life as a family of three.

What do you get when you take a high speed camera, a canister full of liquid nitrogen and a bunch of geeks? You get Smashfest 2011 and a lot of awesome pictures.

Today is my birthday. I use these blog posts like open time capsules. They capture a moment in time at a specific time. Up to this point, birthday’s always felt like they were building up to some greater event. This year I feel like my birthday finds me in the middle of execution. That is glorious and frustrating.

Most of you aren’t my friend on Facebook. That’s okay, you’re not missing anything. In fact, my Facebook profile was completely dead until Twitter created the Facebook app that republished my tweets. Until yesterday, I basically added no additional content to Facebook than what I posted to Twitter. What changed yesterday?
