After a year of disuse, I'm coming back to this project. I lost my focus because something was missing. I didn't understand my direction. I knew what I wanted it to be, but didn't know how to put it in words.
Well, this morning I read a phenomenal blog post from Jim Louderback (CEO of Revision3) discussing how he believes Microsoft Really Murdered Vista. You should go read that before continuing - it'll open in a new window.
He gave the perfect term for what I've been all these years, and what I wanted this blog to be for: I'm a Brand Ambassador. I've also heard it called a Tech Evangelist, and I guess that fits too. I'm very passionate about the products I like, and very critical of the ones I don't. People seem to be drawn to me to ask my opinions of things, tech or otherwise. I always wanted this blog to be a home for those opinions.
So this is a rebirth, a starting over. If it goes well, maybe I'll start back on that podcast I was working on too. ;)
I also realize that I'm not going to be able to succeed on my own. If you are a Brand Ambassador in your daily life, please contact me - I'd love to have others contributing articles.

I think you fell off the blogging bandwagon, again. :)
Yeah, I'll own that. I'd really like to get back to this, and I will at some point.
Of course, "readheadedreader" looks pretty sparse too. ;)
Yeah, set that one up so as to be able to comment on a blog a long, long, loooong time ago.
I do my blogging at www.withak.org
Yeah, I found withak also, just thought it would be fun to kid you. ;)
Hmmm... how many other of my online hangouts have you found?
A guy can't reveal all his secrets all at once...I haven't even really started digging full-blast yet. I'm world-renowned for my researching skills. ;)
