Commercial Noise

The art of being heard

No updates for some time so let’s make one.

Since last I wrote here I have changed a lot in my life. I have gotten a divorce, I have moved in with my mom, I have become “a single dad”, I have taken to riding a bike, I have started to learn and practice yoga, I now eat salads more meals then not.
My life is focused on change right now. Change in the things in the past that created the lifestyle that I was living. After more then a month of these changes I have started to see the change in my life and my body. I am more the person I want to be and less the person I let life make me. These changes will continue, although im not sure about the posts. I find I have less time now because of everything I am doing but I also find more energy to do stuff so we will see what happens.

Brain storming

without comments

Some days I find it harder then others to come up with new content ideas. One site is doing well but needs to keep growing, the others need a lot of work on the content side. Time to break out the notepad and go site in a coffee shop.

New look

without comments

I’m switching to a canned theme for my blog until I can build a new one. The old one was too dark.

Testing android wordpress app

without comments

Testing posting to blog from my g1. Overall it gives me the extra character count when twitter isn’t enough. Other then that not sure. Iwould use it for much. Maybe could also use it for short blog ideas, but think I would have to do a longer follow up post on a devce with a bigger keyboard.

2 Months

without comments

Blogging isn’t something I do often, or well. I always start with the intention of doing it everyday. During the day things come to me that would be great topics to write on, things that I have strong feelings about. The problem is distraction after work, which sucks away my time. I looked today and saw it has been two months since my last post. So today I am again going to try and post but it wont be an everyday thing I will try and post when I have an idea. That might be 3 or more times a day or once a week. I have one post mostly finished about a creative marketing idea here at work, Select Blinds, I should have it up tonight.

The ultimate goal is to find my voice online. lets see where we go.

Is it Friday yet?

without comments

Spending the last two days doing what amounts to little more than copy and paste data entry has me longing for this week to end. I’m working on spending more time really using my blog to express things I see, hear, feel and think. So this post will offer no value other than a small insight into my tiny world.

This weekend is my sons 10th birthday celebration, I would tell everyone what he is getting but he might see it. Thinking about having a 10 year old makes me wonder what I’m doing now and will be doing when he turns 20. I can always hope it isn’t doing data entry, but it could be. Over the last month I have had no less than 14 offers to be part of startups, and I’m not sure I’m ready for that leap yet. I have a small focus on some PPC driven sites for a little extra income and I do some SEO work for friends, but other than that my focus needs to be helping my wife get her stuff in order and online. She has lots of creative ideas and some great product just no way to show it. I am going to work on wordpress this week and figure out how to make it super simple for the non-geek in my life. Once she is rolling I am sure she will be able to keep it going with little help on my side. She just needs the tools set out for her.

The only way this seems to be possible, me getting the work done, is to set timelines and be held accountable to them. I need a good online project management tool to help me with this. Maybe something that I can tie into Google calendar so I can s it from my g1. I have access to many many tools that can be used to prompt me to do what needs to be done on time I just have to really focus and use them.

Well it’s time to get back to my day job, one more day of data entry and my current project should be done and ready for launch.

Test post using BlogDesk

without comments

 

green-1

im trying to insert an image, i like that it lets me know its to large to fit but when i crop it, it seems to resize the image into the space set by the crop but not realy crop it. this leads to a very distortated image

 

 

green-2

The second image seems to crop ok, i also turned it B&W. im not sure i will use that option much, if i wanted the image B&W id have done it in lightroom or PS.

green-3 i also dont seem to be able to use the shift key to maek the crop selection a true square.

 

over all this seems like a much better desktop posting app then live writer in terms of handling images.

one thing it turns out i dont have is inline spell check, and anyone that has read anything i typed with out spell check knows i need that to be there.

we will play withthis and see what happens, maybe a workflow that goes from word to here to blog might work out.

 

it lets me edit after posting which is kewl.

now if i could link to a hosted image on something like flickr.
