Things are quiet - too quiet…

What’s happening?

Because of the right people quitting, I’ve got 3 jobs now - webmaster, project manager (3 projects) and Visibilities “manager”. I put the last in quotes since there’s no real job, only real work - I have to get all the displays working in a scheduled, coordinated fashion. Ever been to my employer, Media Plaza? If you have, please post back below… Am I enjoying it - mostly. If only that I finally - after 3 years of misdirection and mismanagement - get my hands back on the portal and the web projects. The political football that is our website has landed back in my lap, years after our 2001 award-winning design. So I’m generally happy to be developing this site again.

No home system right now. After the debacle of the 12“ Powerbook I’ve decided to go to a 15” model for the better screen. Alas I wanted a different keyboard - like the US model with the larger shift keys on both sides (like a real keyboard) but I can’t get one from Apple here in the Netherlands. Imagine my surprise. So I’ll have to pick on up later this month while in New York for the yearly “pizza & bagels pilgrimage”. Once I’m equipped, I can begin moving on - I’m eager for that. I hate detritus, which means…

Site updates are coming - yeah, my interest in this experiment in blogging is shifting. I do love to write, and occasionally find I have readers who post back (even if only to bitch) but the intrinsic value of blogging is still undecided to me. There’s too much signal-to-noise on the web already, and I’m not big on self-promotion, so unless this comes to some proper usage I’m going to chalk it up to experience. Yet I need my resume and portfolio online, and perhaps I can wrap this all a bit better, a bit less like a blog and more like a resource. We’ll see - the paper’s already being drawn. Maybe we’ll see some Flash - yeah, like the web needs more of that!
