Blogging

I started actively blogging prior to 2008. Currently, I have multiple blogs: one focused on web design, called wicketbang.com, another on my general thoughts at atouchoflunacy.com, and a music instruction blog at bassiclearning.com.

My first serious blogging came about when I contributed to LifeHack.org, followed by ShowWatcher.com (UPDATE: as of 072415, Showwatcher.com is gone).

Somewhere in there, I wrote (on a lark, really) a short selection of Haiku poems. It's called "30 days of IT Haiku".
