Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes and Announcements

I was thinking about a few things today; things I need to do, work, my site and this blog were all on my mind. I had a couple ideas specifically about this blog that I would like to implement that hopefully all of you readers will like (yes,all 2 of you). So I’ll get right to it.

From now on I’m going to go a more personal route with this blog. I’ll still write opinion pieces on topics, products and web stuff because that’s what I do and what I’m into but I’ll also write more about what I’m doing, my side projects and different goings-on in Orlando and Central Florida.

I also will be restructuring the blog a bit including adding new categories and later on a new blog design (more on that in the future). I’ll also be adding a bunch of stuff to my portfolio along with tweaking it a bit. My side project Helpmepaymyloans.com is close to launching a blog which I’m also writing for.  Hopefully I can launch by Christmas and start SEO to get some visitors (fingers crossed).

I also want to announce I have a few cool projects coming up. I’ll be helping my friend Cory design Florida Death Metal, as you already know from a previous post. I’m working on doing some t-shirt designs for another friend who will be starting up a t-shirt label soon. And I’m in the beginning stages of working on a couple websites. All this on top of my full-time spot at NFi Studios where we are currently prepping an amazing product to be released soon which I did the branding, UI design and marketing website for (more about that next month).

If you’ve gotten this far, thanks for reading. Stay tuned for future updates/announcements/rants/opinions and general coolness all around. Later.

    That all sounds pretty exciting. I’ve been wanting to do a re-structuring for IHTDC for awhile, it’s tough to take care of your own stuff when you’re busy with work / helping friends. Good luck with all the new sites, I totally dig HelpMePayMyLoans.com. And BTW… you have THREE readers, mister. Don’t count me out.

    [...] I’ll be back in the swing of things when I come back the 28th and hopefully have time for the things I promised in this post. [...]

    Don’t feel bad buddy; I think I’ve got 2 readers as well. Untold scores of shameless self-promoting links and 2 readers.

    Figures.
