Asking all my life.
Came across this on Alan Meckler’s Blog. It’s an interesting theory of the future and what could happen. It’s got a pretty freaky undertone, especially when Seth posted this.
Sure makes me wonder about the integrity and truth behind the future of all information, not just blogging. What year is this…1984?
[Update: Guess I should be paying more attention. There is a Blogging, Journalism & Credibility Conference going on. Nice.]
Well, this morning I had a chance to catch up on some blog reading. When you’ve got so many subscribed, it’s easy for the unread ones to pile up. And this morning it seemed that every post I was reading had some mention to a novel: Blink. So I used it as a sign and went out to purchase it. And I’m glad I did. I’m half way through already, and it’s a page turner into the unconscious mind. And now posts like Tom Peter’s “Eye Sparkle Factor” make so much sense.
Steve Pavlina is easily running up the list in my favourite blogs. Why? Because
with an easy (and yet not easy at all) technique he helped me find my life’s
purpose in about 40 minutes.
Sure, his title says 20 minutes, but you’ve got to have all your personal baggage
in check if you want to reach that kind of speed. And sure enough, as the warning
went, when I was done I was bawling my eye’s out. Ya, I’m man enough to admit
that I was bawling like a kid who lost their first pet. It wasn’t pretty. Even
copying and pasting this little phrase brings a little tear to my eye, which means
I was successful.
To be at home with my head in the clouds and music in my heart
“Discovering your purpose is the easy part. The hard part is keeping it with you on a daily basis and working on yourself to the point where you become that purpose.”
Oh boy!
Secrets are funny little things. Somewhere inside us we like to hold onto the pieces of mystery which only we can answer or understand. Why do we do this? For control. I’ve had my own little secret which I’ve been only letting a few people know, here and there. Well, I’m letting it go. Reason being I’ve got something online. It’s completely at a development stage which means if it breaks, it’s to be expected. Plus, control is only an illusion, when you really take a look, the power is in you, not me.
Because I need to soak in as much feedback as I can get, I’m opening the bag out to you. Ladies and Gentlemen, I present, wherestheshow.com. The blog, blog.wherestheshow.com will be the focal point where I will be posting the updates, and request for feedback. So if you do have a chance to take a look, if you could post your comments here, it would be appreciated.
Sure, it took me long enough, and I’ve still got miles to go before I sleep. But I’ve got something up in a development location, dev.wherestheshow.com. Remember this is for development purposes so if something goes completely wrong, it’s to be expected. There is a whack of things still to do especially the reminders feature, which is a really key feature needed before launch.
Oh and one problem, was as I was building this out, the data I had in there is now outdated. So now I need to scramble to add in more listings into the system. If there are any listings you want to see, let me know.
So people, time to hack away. Let me know what sucks and what doesn’t. The more feedback the better.
