As 2007 comes to a close, we’re going to partake in some shameless self-promotion and award some of last year’s posts a “best of 2007″ designation. This may seem silly but it means a lot to the winning posts. They get a spiffy T-Shirt, a case of cheap beer and bragging rights at the next blog post convention. Plus, chicks dig it.
Our Mobile Family Video.
This video post explains a lot about our wacky family. Including how I started working remotely, how many days we knew each other before getting hitched, and the steps we take to preserve the freedom and mobility we had before we had a traveling circus to tote around with us.
The video was recorded in response to a request from author and vagabond Tim Ferriss. He asked people who had read the 4-Hour Workweek

Finally, we want to say thanks for all the comments and great tips. We really do appreciate it. In 2008 we’ll be writing more about our remote work style and homeschooling, among other things. Of course there might be a bit of talk about childbirth as we get closer to our May arrival. Bear with us…we’ll make it as sugar-free as possible.
Hi Michael,
I’m looking forward to reading your best of 2007 — and just a heads up: some of the links are busted (check the “drain” and “slacker parent” links)…
Have a great `08!
Thanks for the heads up. I’ve repaired the broken links.
I see that the homeschooler’s wish list isn’t here, even though it’s listed as the #1 page on your site. Don’t be embarrassed — promote yourself!
Ha ha…too funny. I hadn’t noticed the ommission.
Michael
