Hmm, I think I will need to go back to Twitter. I'm not keen, but it does seem like *far* more is happening in the #rstats community there.
I need to be practical - changing field at this point in my life requires me to skill-up fast, and in particular, driving awareness of my work (to gather criticism and thus improve) seems a good idea. To use a gaming analogy, playing in a group helps you level-up faster.
I'll probably do *only* work there, and keep this for personal stuff.
