I recently wrote a post for Tom Watson's website, Get a Grip on the importance of connectivity and Tom very kindly offered a piece to me to publish on my blog.

Have you ever felt homeless? Not actually been homeless. But felt homeless. As though you had nowhere to go, like you didn’t really belong anywhere.
