The New Guy

June 4th, 2008 · 1 Comment

I’ve been quite awhile, but it is time to write again. I have a lot things I’ve been wanting to discuss and explore, but haven’t had the time. Hopefully things should start to calm down again; probably not.

I started a new job as a Software Development Engineer, which I’m quite excited about. I think it is a great start to my career. Though it is tough to be the new guy at a company. Having to prove yourself and your worth is always a challenge, but I think I have a great opportunity to succeed.

Cheers.

The 50 Dollar Blog Challenge Response

November 27th, 2007 · 2 Comments

What would you do if you had $50 dollars to spend on your blog???

A Blog About Nothing has posed this question and challenge to all! So I would recommend getting in on this - $50 dollars cold hard cash (or check).. maybe in all ones… at least it’s not quarters..

So I’ll bite. This is what I would do with $50 dollars for my blog.

1) Upgrade my Basic Flickr Account to Pro Account - $24.95

All my pictures and so forth are hosted on Flickr, but you only get a 200 picture limit with the basic account. I definitely need to upgrade this. Flickr is great and if you are hosting your own blog having some place to store photos is nice; saves bandwidth.

2) Start a Blog Challenge -> “The $50 Blog Challenge! Reborn”

Share the love! This may be a product of diminishing returns, but I think passing it along and helping other bloggers would be a great idea.We are all a community of bloggers i.e. the blogosphere - this seems to be a great network tool. Many kudos to A Blog About Nothing.

So that is what I would do with the $50 dollars. Nothing too crazy or exciting. Here are a list to some other responses they all have good ideas. :)
