Wow, finally… my first post. This is quite a momentous occasion for me, I’m a little nervous about what people will think of my blog and if they’ll even read it. You wouldn’t think I’d be nervous considering I blat out my every move on Twitter & Facebook, so much so that there is no need to ask me “So, how have you been?”. Anyone following me will already know… in great, and often unecessary, detail.

But I digress (I will do that a lot, so get used to it), back to why I am nervous about this post: You see, I have some amazing friends/mentors in this industry (Rozz, Mike Stopforth & Mel Attree to name a few) who have been encouranging me to start this for quite a while. And I haven’t yet because I want to do this right. I think it will be a personal blog, since I will not even try to enter the leagues of the web 2.0/social media bloggers I admire yet (Specifically; the aforementioned friends plus Eve Dmochowska, Gino Cosme, Dave Duarte, Jon Bishop, Tyler Reed, Nic Haralambous, etc) – I still have A LOT to learn. But I’m not exactly sure what to write about yet.

This brings me to the real real reason I am nervous (see – I told you I would digress!): In the true spirit of social media, I am going to ask you to tell me what you would read. Do you think I should write about my weird and crazy life? Should it only be about what I am learning in this exciting industry? Or should I do a little of both? I wont ask you to be nice – only be nice if you think I deserve it.

In the meantime, get to know me – if you don’t already. I’ve put together a not-so-short summary of who I am and where you can find me on the About and Contact pages. If you want to find out for yourself if I really exist an am not just a badly constructed bot, catch me at the next Jozi 27dinner!

Laterz,
