What is your motivation for blogging?

I blog to stay sane. In grade school, we journaled so much and I began to miss that.  Sharing a journal with the rest of the world sounds like a pretty neat concept to me, so you can gear what you are writing about to interest others but still be random and personal.  Even though blogging is a release, I think there's also that underlying possibility of being "discovered" with blogging, whether its someone wanting you to blog more because they like your writing style, or finding a job where your brand of creativity would be appreciated.

I found many geek t-shirts in my closet, so that encouraged me to pick up blogging.  I have a corresponding G33k shirTz album on MySpace.

I am working late tonight - getting some stuff cleared before a busy day tomorrow so that I can focus on a client deadline.

So as a way of reducing the number of webpages I have open in Firefox (currently 52) here's a whole bunch that I am tagging to delicious and closing for later review.

SBS server 2008 RC0 released to public for beta trial. We will be dlwonloading and installing this in a Virtual Machine to trial. We will be upgrading from SBS 2003 later in the year when SBS 2008 is released. The screen shots I have seen so far look awesome.

The rules of the game get posted at the beginning.
Each player answers the questions about themselves.

Judith tagged me

At the end of the post, the player then tags 6 people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know they’ve been tagged and asking them to read your blog.

Let the person who tagged you know when you’ve posted your answer.

a) What was I doing 10 years ago?

• I was riding my mountain bike in a club - got crash of the year!
• I was playing AFL football for Strathpine Swans
• I was working at Queensland Health on the Accrual Accounting Implementation Team

We have been working a lot in Drupal lately.

Currently we have just completed a site (can't give details sorry) for a client that had very exacting requirements. We were very proud of the work we pulled off as a team and the client thanked us profusely. Here is what she wrote to us:

I just wanted to give you and your team a very BIG THANK YOU!!!! for everything you have done to getting this project complete and working so well!

She has two new jobs to pass to us. We received the first scope document yesterday.
