7 Days until 8
In seven days, my website will be 8 years old. Just for fun, I went to the Way Back Machine to see what my site used to look like and what I used to post about. It's amazing how much different my posts are now, 8 years later. Than it was all about the comics i was creating and the games I was playing. Now I mostly post about my family, my web development and the many reviews I write. There's even a different focus in my reviews.
Anyway, I'm just being a bit nostalgic about it since my website has been a fairly big part of my life for almost 8 years now. I, personally, don't know many personal websites that have been around that long.
For the morbidly curious ones that want to see my website from years ago, be sure to check out both thesocs.com and soc.levels4you.com on the Way Back Machine to see it all.
5 Months Later…
Things have happened in my life that I can’t talk about freely on my blog. This is why it has taken this long for me to post anything. And don’t bother asking - I won’t tell.
I’ve put my website development on hold for the moment, until I finish my current client’s website. I’m almost finished with it, though, and I’m hoping to get back to my website soon. I’ve decided to scale it back a bit, since what it was turning into was basically a wiki site of what I like. I didn’t want that, so now I’m scaling it back some. I’ll still have my writings (MPD Stories, Reviews, Rants, etc), Comics (MMSoC, MMSoC.EXE, LinkSoC), and I’ll be adding an Image site that will allow me to post images I like to my own Flickr-like site. The Forums will return and the Blogs will stay.
Once I’ve got the Comic site done, I’ll be reposting all my comics on a regular schedule. And while MMSoC.EXE is finished up (I have an outline written to take it from where it is to the end), I’ll also be working on a new comic, also set in the BN universe, but following the main story of the games with a few Anime elements thrown in (at least, elements from the episodes I’ve seen).
For those who don’t know, I’ve finally joined Twitter. My tweets are private, so you’ll have to request to follow me. If you don’t think I’ll recognize your Twitter name, email me or Facebook me as well and let me know who you are.
I’ve started using Google Reader to catch all my favorite sites’ new posts and now I’m using the share function to share my favorite posts. Usually, these will be from the icanhascheezburger.com network and similar sites, so you can expect to laugh. Anyway, you can find my shared items here. Enjoy.
And just in case you did not know. I’m now an old fart. At the ripe old age of 1/4 of a century, I’m certainly feeling it. I feel sorry for those who are even older than myself. You all have my pity and sympathy. Before all you older people kill me for that, know that I say that with as much respect for my elders as I can muster. You are where I want to be, for I want to be old!
