Who's got a list of GIS folks to follow on here?
Too quite.
Interesting election results in UK.
You thought the US system was a mess?
Things are kind of quiet over here lately.
I need to start following a few more folks.
Who's got a list?

This is going on a slide for my fall 2017 intro to GIS course, first class.
I learned Stats using SPSS.
So far, in my brief and shallow dive into R, I've come to this conclusion.
R is better than SPSS.
But you might know that already.
One last pic as I walked out the door last night for the last time this semester.
It's been an interesting year.

47 years ago today.
I was an 11 year-old 5th grader at the time.
These things can't happen without having an impact on someone that age.
My son Isaac was an 11 year-old 5th grader when his mom was deployed for 18 months, 12 of them in Iraq.
My daughter Chloe was 13. My daughter Hilary was 15.
These are the things I'm thinking about today.

A new blog post "At Least 10 Reasons You Should Be Using #QGIS" & thoughts from last Fridays NM Geographic Information Council presentation. It's a little long but these are thoughts I've been meaning to get down for awhile. https://www.birdseyeviewgis.com/blog/2017/5/1/at-least-10-reasons-you-should-be-using-qgis … https://mastodon.xyz/media/6C9EDtAt0eNBq6RLLgQ
Is this a case for projections in GeoJSON? Or is it a case against using ArcGIS Online?
Last major update to the HexBinStates project for a while.
Most formats are posted in WGS84, Web Mercator, and National Atlas SRS.

Formats include:
Shapefile

KML
SpatialLite
GeoPackage
GeoJSON (now in the correct WGS84 SRS)
and GML

You can't "tag" a specific file with a specific issue in GitHub?
That seems like a major missing piece to me.
But what do I know.
Just a N00b.
Eight visitors to my State HexBin GitHub page from Reddit today.
I'm not on Reddit.
Should I be?
Tonight's additions include GeoPackage and SpatialLite:

Ability to comment on a boosted post would be a nice addition.
