rocksolid perspective milestone…post #200

It has been just under 2 years and I have reached a milestone, post #200.  Although this post will have not a whole lot to do with SolidWorks information it will give you an idea of where this site and the idea for a blog started from for me.  Here is a copy of my 1st post on RockSolid Perspective.

Welcome to all who have probably stumbled upon this blog by accident. I am completely new to this blogging thing so those who read this are going to need to bear with me for a little while. I was looking for a place where I could voice my opinion on some issues that I came across while either running SolidWorks, doing my everyday job as a design engineer or just something from life in general. I hope this can become a place that you will come back to repeatedly and will tell your friends and fellow co-workers about. I got into reading blogs around 3 months ago and I have really come to enjoy it because one of the things that I love the most about SolidWorks is the community of users that are willing to lend a hand or lend some insight into what you are struggling with on a daily basis. Coming from AutoCAD I was not used to this overwhelming arena of websites, blogs, user groups and discussion forums that you get with SolidWorks. Don’t get me wrong, I realize that there are probably all of these things that relate to AutoCAD also but we were not introduced to them like we were with SolidWorks. I can’t wait to become a part of that throng of users that are sharing information on a regular basis to all who are interested in reading it. I ask that you check out some of my links that I have posted, these are places that I am really comfortable giving recommendations for because of the relationships that I have made at these companies and I feel that they are great places. I have also posted other SolidWorks blogger’s that I read on a regular basis and have learned a great deal from. Well this is all I have for my opening post but I am hoping to write something of importance concerning the software in the next couple of days so be sure to check back in the near future.

I am looking forward to bringing you continued SolidWorks coverage for a long time to come.  I want to take this moment to thank all of my loyal readers and I hope that you enjoy and get something out of what I am writing.  If you have any suggestions for me and my blog please feel free to drop me a comment and let me know.

Also, thanks to Brian McElyea from CADFanatic for commenting on my 1st ever post and welcoming me into the blogging community.
