What's with the title of this blog?

Posted at April 13, 2005 05:03 PM in .

When I was looking up relevant titles for this blog, I had a significantly hard time. I finally decided upon yak shaving.

I got it from Seth Godin's blog, who got it from Joi Ito's blog.

Why is "yak shaving" applicable to this blog?
Well, its not really. But I frequently run into the situation where I am trying to solve a problem by solving a problem by solving a problem several problems later. Only most of the time its not related to programming... its related to some random task that I have for the day.

The reasoning for using the moniker seems like a stretch.. But often times, disruptive innovation emerges from cross pollination. It is my hope, that by ruminating and writing about the world's problems, one day I (or a reader) will have an epiphany to develop a unique business model fostering social enterprise or sustainable development.
