Don’t Call It A Comeback

May 20, 2008 at 12:07 am with 0 comments

Oh the shame. Two blog entries in a years time. Come to think of it, it's about two months past the year anniversary of my Relaunch post, which detailed the (at the time) new redesign, my ideas and motivation for upcoming blog entries, etc. Great job, eh? I succeeded in posting fewer entries than I can count on one hand since then. I think I've figured it out though. I put to much thought into...

Upcoming entries for your entertainment

March 15, 2007 at 2:24 am with 0 comments

I know, I know, I said I was going to post compelling, more intriguing entries on a regular basis, but it really is a hard habit to get into — especially when you've got a newborn, a wife who just had to undergo surgery only five weeks after giving birth, six websites under a retainer contract and four more under independent contract; all that and I still have to go to the bathroom every now and then (I try not to for the sake of writing a blog entry, but it always ends in a mess)... So, since I haven't the time this week to complete one of the six entries I've been writing, I'll just give you a short excerpt or description from each to peak your interest and hopefully draw you back fore more to come.

Relaunch.

First off, this post has taken me about four days to write. Not only am I overloaded with projects right now, but having a newborn son doesn't leave much time left over. That said, let me begin this entry by explaining what I mean by "relaunch". I've realized that over the past few years in which I've had this site, it has mainly been used as an outlet for [what I call] noteworthy items — or items that I found entertaining, humorous, informative or ridiculous. Unfortunately (until recently), these noteworthy entries haven't been very consistent or compelling and usually consisted of a clip or quote from another blog, or a link to a website (or link trolling), along with a short quip of my own added to it — nothing that captures attention, compels readers to comment or even attracted readers to return. I've heard this practice referred to as "me too" mode.
