Here we go again…

Posted March 18, 2004 at 11:11 AM EST in Industry Events, Just Sayin, Web Stuff

For those of you familiar with my previous attempts at having a blog on my site, you’ll recall that those blogs failed miserably. For those not familiar with my previous attempts, I generally posted for one or two days and then never returned. So why would I be trying this again?

I’ve just returned from SXSW Interactive. There I was introduced to many Web luminaries and we discussed various ideas about the Web, Web standards, and other topics. I realized that much of this chit chat continues after SXSW not through e-mail or message boards, but via blogs. However, it wasn’t until Kevin argued for the value of blogs that I began to see the need for me to have one again. So, here I go!

I’ll need everyone’s help in trying to maintain my interest, until I’m really in the swing of using this thing. So if you see that I haven’t published anything lately, please send me an e-mail and harrass me. Or, if you have any ideas to help me out (or just feedback in general), e-mail me or leave a comment. Thanks for your support.

    This is mighty fine looking blog software. ;)

    But really, this is probably the very best way to keep in touch with all the people you met and I’m looking forward to reading what you have to say in the future.

    I’ll go ahead and make a comment on everything you post just to keep things interesting. Who knows what I’ll say! Maybe I’ll just test yourallowedHTML, or maybe i wont.

    Congrats on starting up the blog. I feel your pain about the stuggle to keep it going. I’ll harass you early and often!

    Hooray Kimberly! Maybe your newfound inspiration will help light a fire under my blog-complacent butt as well.

    Jumpin’ Jesus on a Pogo stick… spam on blogs now too? WTF? If I have to enable comment moderation, I’ll be pretty ticked off. Grrr.
