There has been a lot of talk about Facebook’s reputation concerning privacy lately. May 31st, 2010 has been deemed to be “Delete Facebook Day”, and I think I might participate. I’m writing this in hopes that, even if you decide not to delete your Facebook account, that you at least give it some thought. Click to read more …
The title of this post sums it up nicely.
It’s been years now that I’ve known I’ve needed to make some changes, but I’ve always just thought about it and said “I wish”, as if change in my life was this unattainable thing. Sure, there have been a few changes along the way, but not the ones I’ve been dreaming I could make.
I’m talking about changes in who I am.
I’m talking about changes in how I think.
I’m talking about changes in how I relate to others.
I’m talking about changes in how I view the world around me, and changes in how I perceive my place in the world.
It’s time for me to stop dreaming and start doing.
I’ve known for a while now that I need to become more active in the Delaware community and begin making connections. I’m a people person, and I’m fascinated by technology. This combination is what drew me to amateur radio, and it is now drawing me to social networking.
Through Twitter, I have had the opportunity to interact with others in Delaware, and on Friday, met up with a few of them for lunch at El Vaquero. It was great to finally meet in person and make some new friends. I’m really looking forward to continuing to forge new relationships and expand my personal network within the local community.
I am also excited that I have been offered the chance to write for a new web site focusing on Delaware, Ohio. Look for my first post over there soon!
I just updated the blogging software here at gehrisch.us. It doesn’t look like anything broke, but if you notice anything, let me know!
It’s been too long since I’ve updated here. I’m going to have to make some time to write more often.
A couple of my friends (Brian and Jen) have an Internet rado show that they do each week. The show is streamed live, and listeners can participate in the chat room and via skype during the call-in portion. They record the show and release it as a podcast. Brian has even been able to get their show added to the iTunes podcast directory!
I had the opportunity to help out with some of the promos for the show. I recorded a handful of lines for Brian to use. He mixes them and puts some music behind them, and in the end, they sound pretty good!
Doing a little bit of recording for Cave Radio has made me think about doing my own show again. I’ve wanted to do a podcast of my own for a few years now but I haven’t been able to settle on a topic.
