Well the votes are in, chads are hung, and I did the counting. Henceforth there will be two blogs in my life; buzzmodo, wherein I plan to write as I see life, politics, passion, ideas, and anything else than strikes my fancy, and then there will be buzznovation!
There were all kids of great ideas vis a vis what I should call my technology related blog, but regretably all were taken, and buzznovation remained.
Why am I doing this, not sure how best to explain some very simple realities. I have spent the great portion of my life evolving to the me part, which will largely dwell in the buzzmodo plain. At the same time, I have spent about 6 years with ActiveWords. It has been my firm belief that I wanted anyone who downloaded ActiveWords to understand that there were real people behind ActiveWords. Real people who were trying to build software and trying to build it so that it solved real problems.
I recently got a note from one of our ActiveWords users that said, "I love ActiveWords, hate your politics and will pray for you!" I thought about this post a lot, and realized that I had mixed my passions, and just as easily as I had mixed them, I could at least seek to un-mix them.
So, the start of a new adventure begins. Buzzmodo will be about ideas, and buzznovation will be about aggregating ideas within technology as I see it.
I will do my best to write thoughtfully in both spaces, but pick one, pick both, and if you pick none, then so be it.
My friend Cameron Reilly suggested that he had too many blogs in his news agregator. Not a problem! Mine will only take up two spots. I had asked my friends at SixApart to figure out how to allow people to subscribe to my various categories and they told me that was a feature on the horizon.
But I need to get on with it, so ladies, gentlemen, start your aggregators!
