Eureka...Blog Solution!!

p { font-family: Trebuchet MS; color: #FFCC00; }

I think I finally have this blogging thing figured out!! 

Trust me, I have had several...
I fell into this big trap.. 
I had one with Google and it was cool (they saved me from a domain host who trashed my first WordPress blog).

I was having fun learning the ropes, but I wanted to focus on programming.  I wasn't sure that a blog (back at that time) was the right medium for what I had in mind!  I wanted to talk to my peers, share code and ideas.  Maybe a website would be better, I went back and forth trying different solutions.

So, I decided to start another, keeping the social one, but I named this new one 'DotNET Jeff' - :)

I play around on all those cool Google API's - but most of my time is dedicated to Microsoft technologies

Its what I love, it is the core of why I do what I do...

 
So, I am reading about - "WPF", "LINQ" thinking - how we could enhance the app we have - (But we live in the land of Citrix based app deployment...) and I notice that they are offering me a blog. 

Oh my, I was like a kid in a candy store and totally out of control.  So, I took it, and now have 3 blogs - and barely enough time to maintain ONE!

WHAT DO I DO?

I cannot trash the DotNET Jeff', it's new but I still like it - I like this one as well, so keeping them all!  What to do!!!!

So, I have decided to partition them:

  1. Google .NET blog was going to be renamed, but I exercised my rights as a human and changed my mind!  I will have both focus on .NET related Technologies !!! This is also my designated project blog for SQLString
  2. Social one, well I only post there if it is something I really care about (like what Bush did at the Knesset, or Darfur - along those lines).
  3. Microsoft blog will be only for .NET discussions...and cool technology!!

In addition...since my friends think I work too hard, I now have a justification for allocation of more time to those things I want to do - like blogging about MIDORI or how the SDK Development Team has released the source code to Terrarium .NET 2.0!!!       

Heaven help me if Intel went into this business!!  (J/K-....LOL/NOT)

Oh, and the SPACES (the one I thought was a blog), my brain is tired...but it does look cool.  Much more than the original MySpace pages I have seen.

Next week:

My Adventure down the WPF Trail
