New Ownership

If you happen to come across a post mentioning my girlfriend, let me assure you that I am completely straight. I bought this blog from a fellow blogger, propstm, and we have some similarities and some differences, the most important difference being our gender. I’m a girl, and he’s a boy. Hence the girlfriend mix-up.

With new ownership of the blog, a lot of changes are underway. The first one being the ‘About’ page.

I’m fleeing the social scene? Well maybe not. This blog might be another wordpress blog, or maybe not? I’m a bit of a fly on the wall. I’m taking it all in.

I’m a 21 year old developer and (web entrepreneur and) college student. Also I’d like to think of myself as a bit of a networking ninja. I can’t even begin to explain how I’ve gained the contacts I’ve got. It’s kinda crazy who absolutely loves what she does. But I still make in a year what some of my friends make in a month.

The Frankenstein Zombie that is Fleeing the Social Scene:

  • 2 Parts Randomness Sleeplessness
  • 1 Part SEO Ideas
  • 1 Part Domaining Hard Work
  • 1 Part Web Design
  • 1 Part Web Entrepreneur

The next big obstacle was to change every post that looked like this:

I’ve been a bit lazy, a bit busy, as of late.?? Basically my life has been hectic and I’ve neglected this blog.?? There I’ve said it.?? So today I’ve got a bit of free time so later in the day I’m planning a bit of cleaning up of lose ends.?? Hopefully I’ve got a bit of energy and can utilize the timestamp to breathe a bit of life back into this blog. I’m feelin’ optimistic??

Into a normal post without all those question marks. Apparently the problem was with encoding.. I was too lazy to spend 15 minutes to change the encoding in the database, so I spent 5 hours changing each post one by one.

With this blog, I hope to:

  1. Get RSS subscribers so I don’t feel like an idiot talking to myself
  2. Earn money, because my blog is mostly about earning money and it’d be stupid of me to teach everyone how to make money and be left hungry myself.
  3. Get a few of you to laugh, and some of you to giggle (depending on your personality).
  4. Teach you what I’ve learned over the past 3 years of working online, and the things I did that you shouldn’t do (like refreshing the page every minute on Amazon Mechanical Turk for an opportunity to win $0.01 in gift certificates. FOR A YEAR!)
  5. Inform you of the coolest facebook applications and wordpress templates and widgets which I hope you will use because 1) a facebook application is no fun if no one else is using it and 2) I am sick of reading your boring blogs with all text and no images. So in a way I am doing this for selfish reasons.
  6. Prove everyone wrong and let them know that working online is worth it. That means my friends, my ex-teachers, and even strangers. NO I WILL NOT GET A PROPER JOB! FOR NOW, THIS IS MY JOB.
  7. Lose a few pounds. I figured if I announce to the whole world that I’m a little on the fat side, it would bring more pressure to lose the extra pounds. And no, I’m not your stereotypical girl who will talk endlessly about how fat she looks. I happen to be a very quirky one, and if you happened to read this far, not such a rotten one either.

So hopefully this post has kept your interest enough not to delete me from your rss feeds been interesting enough to win you over as my rss subscriber.
