So first posts are always problematic. How to grab your audience in the immediate without being controversial presents issues. Like all who blog the instant inclination is to illuminate in some manner, then maybe excite, energise, educate and enrich before collapsing from alliterative asphyxia. But this isn’t my first post ever…
This is my third blog (no I haven’t dumped the others), I have a company blog that can be found at http://www.shadowcat.co.uk/blog/mark-keating and I have a vox blog at projectmonkey.vox.com (though I have become disenfranchised with the Vox way of doing things). So why have a third?
Well, there are quite a few things that I want to talk about that don’t entirely fit on my company blog, true I could wedge them in there but they wouldn’t quite fit right, they always feel like they are wedged in there without good enough cause. The company blog should be about the things I do in my Shadowcat life. So I could post them on Vox, but that blog has always been random and very much an open space without form or function.
So I ended up having a few things I wanted to talk about that I felt were just the wrong shade of sideways for the company blog, and were above the horizon of what I use Vox for. And then a fellow northwestengland.pm member offered me a blog on his per.ly space and I jumped at the chance.
So Here it is.
