On the Personal Side of Things

Note: This article was published while I was in my early 20s. I was much younger and dumber. Please don't hold it against me. One of the perils of having a 20+ year old website!

It’s been a while since I’ve posted on here or on Freelancing the Net. In my defense I’ve been extremely busy, but that is all coming to a head on Wednesday. This semester, my final collegiate semester, has been by far the most challenging. All 9 of my credits have challenged me; my thesis by far the biggest challenge. I will come up with a post on that as well as post my final presentation, which explains what I did. However, I’ve done/am still doing significant things in my other two classes, and may post on them too.

Then there is the business plan competition. A couple of friends and I entered this contest in hopes of winning funding to start a business and we took 3rd place. We are incredibly excited and have already begun work on setting up the business, our new office space, and are courting clients. There’s a good chance this blog will change speeds after I graduate to talk about what I am going through in relation to that.

So there is a quick update. Keep your eyes open for a post on my thesis, coming hopefully soon.

  • Are Creators Free Riders? Plus, Building Your Mailing List With and Without WordPress

    Are creators (and anyone who doesn’t contribute to WordPress) free riders? I look at that question and wonder why there’s such hostility towards non-contributors, even though they are essential in the march towards that mother of all vanity metrics: 50% market share. Plus, A bit of news about an upcoming series on this show, and a deep cut from an old podcast I used to host about why you need to build your mailing list.
