I'm a Blogger...?

Jennifer here.

Well, Brian said I should blog about something. So here I am. My first blog post. I really have nothing very interesting to share in my first post. But this is a start.

I have been working here at CDRC for 7 years 5 mos. Back then, when I was told about the job opening, it was described to me as an office worker for a wind instrument company. AWESOME! I love weather! I really dig anemometers! I love going to the top of the highest peak in the northeast and leaning into the wind! Great! I get be part of a scientific company! So much for that thrill. While I doubt I'll ever learn to play (nevermind learn to read music), it turns out that oboes and bassoons are pretty neat too.

I see websites that have a "chat with a representative" feature and feel like we should offer that here. But those cost money and why not use something free and simple to use. Less direct, but free and uncomplicated.

I have created a Yahoo Messenger ID so interested double reeders can contact someone here via IM. Maybe there is a burning question that needs an answer (related to oboe or bassoon, please). Or an ordering question or concern. I'm not sure how popular this will end up being, but I thought it was worth a try.

So anyone interested in IMing for double reed related issues feel free to add charlesdoublereed to your Yahoo IM list. Please do not contact us through the Yahoo mailing address as it will not be checked regularly.

I'll post something more interesting soon.
