I’m testing pingback for older post
I am currently ramping up to reinvigorate my blog / online presence / personal brand / social media strategy, etc. etc.
What you are seeing on my blog today is a temporary placeholder until I can officially “relaunch.”
I’ve recently moved to the East Coast (Somerville, MA) and have been doing some Big Thinking about where I’m going with my work, life, etc. Part of this is a renewed emphasis on ego-building online. It’s easier now than ever, and I’m really exhausted by seeing uninteresting people have all the fun.
However, as an antidote to my bad habits of taking on too many low-value projects and passive aggressively making the last 20% of ongoing projects drag on and on, I have been trying to implement Cal Newport’s idea of a completion-centric productivity.
I’m back! Switched servers, but managed to get all the content over in one piece.
FINALLY.
… and somehow, this is very unsatisfying.
Time to reiterate.

It should be good to go by then. Even if [...]

I bought a toyota prius a couple weekends ago.
I was stunned and secretly giddy to see all those hybrid commercials during the Super Bowl.
I’m getting around 42 miles per gallon in the city. Not shabby. Not earth-saving, either.
The only true hybrid: (Gas + Electric) + V(Leg Power) where V is [...]
I will get out of Austin at least once per month this year.
Here is an indyjunior map of my travels past and future for 2006. This will be an ever-evolving map.

Clearly, I am spending some time redesigning my site.
In order to think through these changes, I’ve been looking at a lot of other peoples’ websites for inspiration. It is a fine line between “inspired by” and “stolen from,” but there is a lot of really good stuff out there.
Your creative ideas and projects will evolve and devolve among various states. The broad description of how ideas turn into reusable results is what I’m calling my “creativity framework.”
