Sometimes I will write about the status of the blog. This will mostly be content related to statistics such as the Post number 100 post, or when I did a post to celebrate the fact that I now own a personal domain Happy Easter and welcome to the new Project Corner Blog! But I will also cover things that I am particularly proud or happy about such as the time I got married and when Wendy and Louise were born.

Although not directly related to Microsoft Project and such, it gives you an insight on how the blog and the person behind it (me, Erik van Hurck) are doing. It gives a nice personal touch I believe, and I hope you like reading the articles in this category.
