BlogWild!

I love the title of the book I'm reading now." BlogWild!" by Andy Wibbels.

A guide for small business blogging. I totally agree with the authors view on how beneficial a blog is. I should redouble my efforts onto this blog.

Here are some gleanings from my readings:

I think my project has shifted towards a marketing perspective since I last looked at it carefully. it currently looks like a project with the title "How to standout from other small businesses using a blog platform." except, the title would be a lot shorter and catchier.

Since trying to organize and timeline my whole project, I realise I'm not too bad a planner, but I'm not a good follower of plans. I like to to handle tasks randomly, as I get the motivation for it. Having said that, I do not see that it would devastate the project as I have a feeling I'm working much faster this way.

This is the projected timeline that I came up with before

I am really proud of how the project is going. The project is also going to end up as a future business endeavour for me, so its a double stake. The company is in the midst of being set up and registering for trademarks and so on. I'ts all very very exciting, and I should not risk compromising the partners by giving away too much, but I will announce things properly when it's all in black and white.

However, the juicy details are , I will be flying back to KL malaysia in Mid June to meet some suppliers and also to Bangkok in early July. Talk about an expensive project , lol. but its worth it :)

To the Future!

I believe that in the near future, computers and the internet will be able to simulate every detail of this world. I've been waiting for that time since I was a pre-teen. I think this is just a few years off. Imagine being able to create any type of object that is part of the virtual world as the AD itself! take Spores for example, the Creature creator by the makers of SIMS now allow you to create ur own race. http://www.spore.com/what Imagine creating M&M creatures? Or a Race of the Jolly Green Giants? Any mascots could actually exist now. Mermaids,Dragons,Angels and Hobbits won't just be mythical anymore.
