I guess I’m alive
It’s been almost a year since I last posted anything to this blog. I don’t know if I can call this a blog and myself a blogger. The good news is, blogs are so 2006. In 2010 web 2.0 is ancient and social media is for grandmothers. Everyone is busy maintaining several profiles and presences on different sites, and then trying to link them all and not get lost in the mess.
About a year ago, in a little spurt of craziness, I started transferring this blog into a multi section magazine to cover my different interests. I never finished the project, and didn’t post for a whole year, because I made my site too overwhelming even for myself to post. In retrospect I don’t know what I was thinking, I can barely keep a regular blog going.
I’ve seen on-and-off bloggers like myself poking in once every few months and announcing “I’m Back” only to hibernate for another 6 months. I’m not saying I’m back, maybe the way blogging works for me is when it’s not on tight timeframe, and that’s OK with me.
Anyways, Here’s a recap of lot’s of things I would have posted about in 2009, and some plans for 2010.
- I got a job working for a web/SEO Company
- I’m now trained as a professional pastry chef (It was fun, and who knows, I might use it professionally one day
- I’m perhaps warming up to the idea of using twitter, and tweets will probably get aggregated here as asides or “mini posts”
- About 5 years too late, I started using Delicious and I love it.
- I’m putting allot of effort in making OpenDesigns something really special
- I quit my job in order to dedicate myself to my sites and freelace work and consulting – - I live the independence, and currently i’d consider taking a job only at Google, or perhaps Automattic
So that’s it for now, next update to come sometime in the future.
