Long time with no updates. Again. (Again.)
It’s been a busy semester, which is now thankfully over. Since classes ended a few weeks ago I’ve remained busy, not only with research but also some travel and personal stuff.
Across the Charles
I went down to MIT for a W3C SPARQL meeting, meeting a lot of SPARQL people in person for the first time, and trying to avoid being attacked by the numerous robots that were patrolling outside our conference room (it’s a wonder we got anything done with all the robots around the CSAIL lab). While in Cambridge, I stayed with Kabir for a couple nights, enjoying the awesome view of Boston and the Charles river from his apartment.
Red Tulips
After returning from Cambridge two weeks ago, Kat and I went to the Albany Tulip Festival and saw some nice tulips before it started pouring rain. It was nice, but the flowers seemed a bit past their prime by the festival (last year’s timing worked out much better).
Buffalo
This past weekend, we drove out to Buffalo to spend the weekend with Karie. We had an amazingly full weekend, getting some great food (vegan buffalo “wings”!), drinks, waded out into Lake Erie from a secluded beach in Canada, and went to Niagara Falls (where there were much nicer tulips than in Albany).
