The purpose of this blog is to help me organize my Master’s thesis: to keep tabs on what I’ve done, how I’ve done it.. what problems I’ve encountered, how I’ve addressed them.. what assumptions I’ve made.. what models I’ve used.. and what still remains to be done. Sheesh, this sounds pretty easy. Most of what I’ve done has been documented in one form or another (papers, reports, entries in my Moleskine) but hasn’t really come together yet – I hope that’s where this blog will come in handy.
