HEY, World!

A few months ago, I published a blog post on my old website entitled "HEY, that's different." At the time, I was simply a HEY for Domains customer. Now, however... things have changed. I've upgraded the rest of my life and as of today, I've migrated away from the legacy systems that have held me back. I am now a HEY for You customer.

I feel comfortable writing this post on HEY World because, honestly, The Screener is so powerful. I can keep unsolicited things out of my Imbox, no sweat, no hassle at all. I'm thrilled! All I can hope is that HEY has a bright future ahead with love built into everything that gets added into it with an energized team. Actually, I kind of know that's the case. 37signals is a small but mighty organization who's trust in the space is proven.

I'm fully on this train at this point. Plus, I think I got the best @hey.com address for me if I do say so myself. No more random gibberish @microsoftsgarbargeemailservice.com for this writer's personal life. It's a fresh start. I needed this. If nothing else but for me. I had reached 3k+ emails on my personal account and 2k+ on my @sladewatkins.com account and finally had enough.

For the general public, though, continue to email me at inbox@sladewatkins.com like you have done up until this point: that's the address for you! Although because of how convenient HEY World is, you might see me writing here more often... check back frequently! 

And thank you, 37signals. ❤️
