Thing #1: Let's Get Bloggy

I'd sell my soul for...the chance to win one of the prizes for 23MT - hence my fashionably late to the party arrival on the 23MT blogging scene! That's right - I just bought a new iPad Air 2 and I "need" to successorize it!

Setting up the blog was easy, remembering the password to my Google account to do it however, was hard. I chose Blogger as my platform of choice, not because it's pretty, not because it's functional, not because it's easy to use - there are a ton of other platforms available on the Internet that fulfill all of those things and possibly do it better - I simply chose Blogger cause I already had an active account (read: lazy).

Deep down (as much as it pains me) I have to admit that blogging has its uses. I have used them over the years for both professional and personal uses, including:

  • keeping my family up-to-date (when living in far-flung exotic locations like Calgary);
  • school projects;
  • communication initiatives; and more!

The one downside of blogging however, is the amount of time you need to invest in order to be successful. It is A LOT of work making sure you post relevant and interesting content on a regular basis. Hopefully over my next 22 posts I can enterpain and enlighten you on the subject(s) of wireless wonderment!
