I logged into the ‘New’ facebook earlier this week, you can get there too http://www.new.facebook.com .   Call me a cynic if you will, but in my brief explorations I found nothing but frustration!  Yes the home page was ‘cleaner’ but then I had to waste a load of time looking around to find where everything else was.

 I had a look at it and decided that it is really nothing more than the old grocery store ploy.  You know the game I’m sure, wait until people can shop blindfolded then switch everything up.  It engages the customer longer, forces them to discover new products, and makes them generally grumpy.  We’ll see what happens when they go live with this.

Holy man!  It’s been weeks since I posted here.  I can’t believe it!

See what happens when you get having fun, ripping out carpet, laying flooring, painting, moving furniture and then putting it all back together.  We (H and I) put new flooring down in the upstairs, then had to paint and do trim work.  It was a HUGE job but worth it. 

Unfortunately, I came back to the blogging world infrequently, only really to do the paid work, and the volunteer stuff.  Things are really picking up for one volunteer project HH4H.ca and I’m lying to everyone if I say that I am not getting worried about things.  Everything.  Nothing.  It’s going to be huge.

The paid work is going well.  Not enough of it, as I dropped a client.  I guess it wasn’t a good match.  It is hard to be in the sticks here and rustle up part time work.  Contact me if you need someone to do writing/blogging for you. 

Oh well.  I can worry about that in the fall, after the joyous summer ends.

I was saddenned to read that Jason Calacanis ended his blog today.  He’s a great entrepreneur and thinker.  I love how he has marketed himself and everything he does so well.  Thanks for the ideas Jason.  I’ll keep your blog in mind as my inspiration.
