So if anyone as been following my blog for a while will notice the my nom de plume has changed. Why did I do this? Basically because I'm no longer a teenager in need of a punk rock name. I owned that name for fifteen years and now it's time to (slowly) retire it. I'm not using my "real name" because I don't want strangers / employers / family to easily find my online profile. I'm not ashamed, it's just a small measure of protection. It wouldn't be too difficult for anyone to find my identity if they put a little effort it. I just don't want this to be the first thing in a Google search of my name.
So my new name is a reflection of my bi-racial heritage. I also changed my Twitter handle, @hiroshiryan.
