I need to bring my blog back online.
On Wednesday I am participating in a large mock interview and networking event. In wake of this I realized that I don't have a website currently. Don't get me wrong; I do have an interest in web design and applications. In fact, the latest project I completed (for a web design course) was never hosted online, but rather viewed and evaluated offline. My final mark in the course was an A, for those still in doubt.
I built from scratch, owned and maintained a personal blog site (and its graphics) at age 16. According to my colleagues, it had a very simple, "zen" feel to it. The colour scheme was light blue on white. I used to draw lots and had an artwork page with thumbnail links to each piece. I kept blog entries and journal writings on a regular basis.
Back to the present. Since I don't currently have a website, I want to revive my blog so that I can place a link on my business cards. Another way for employers to reach me. The other reason to revive it is honesty - I'm not pretending that I have been keeping a website or blog all along, but I am going to make an effort to continue keeping one now that I have recognized my mistake.
Why didn't I keep posting? If you couldn't tell by now, I gave this blog no real direction - It was merely a place to keep my musings in a neat little Web-bundle.
Will that change? We'll see. I might end up building a new site and keeping this one as is. Or this blog might see some real direction.
If you have one, your website or blog is valuable. Keep it up.
