Nothing To Write About But I Promised Myself…
That I would write a post every day, but I find it to be a struggle.
I honestly just don’t know what to say about ninety percent of the stuff that flies by my radar, especially because I have this problem where what I have to say needs to be original and have a different perspective.

Taking A Break From The Social Web, How It Has Helped Me
A lot of people know I am extremely active across various social networks, but lately I have taken a break and I know a few of you (much love) have noticed.
The reason for taking a break is not some grand revelation, nor do I have a long explanation.
I simply wasted too much time.

Why I Rejoined FriendFeed
