Happy New Year from Bill

Thursday, January 1st, 2009

Hello everyone. I want to wish everyone a happy new year.

I started this blog a few months ago because I had a lot to say. I had previously been using MySpace but found it to be too impersonal and not far reaching enough. There were people requesting to be my friend who may have never even glanced at my profile. I outgrew that outfit preferring rather to post social commentary and talk about topics that people could relate to or were interested - not about what outfit I’m wearing today or if I are breakfast or not. 

Through this blog I’ve met many like-minded and interesting people and new visitors are showing up like gangbusters every day. When I started this blog I never thought I’d reach over 200 visitors total much less 200 visitors per day!

I especially want to wish those of you who I met through this blog a happy new year as well. People like Terra and Pete and the many other visitors who happen to run blogs that I visit daily.

Its a new year and that means new beginnings. As everyone knows I’ve been working tirelessly on a new web site that extends this blog. The new site will be an extension of this blog in that not only will it have the same blog you know and love but also more pages that make it an extension of my personality on the web. Some things you will see is:

  • Of course the original blog on the same topics as always
  • A feed. This will be random musings like a Tumblelog. It will contain stuff I find online, music, videos, quotes, and anything that doesn’t fit in the original blog.
  • A section about me. A short bio with links to all the social networks I’m on so you can follow me.
  • Felix and Friends. My original music will be online. You can download songs, view lyrics and photos, and find out when and where I’ll be performing next.
  • Extras. From time to time I’ll provide a download of some sort. Maybe a program I wrote or a wallpaper for your computer or a set of icons. Who knows?

Things to come in the future

I’m only one person so I could only fit a certain number of things into the site at once. What you will see are the essentials. In the future I may add:

  • Coding tutorials. 
  • Wordpress themes
  • Who knows? Ideas are welcome!

You can visit the new site at http://version2point1.tk

The site isn’t finished quite yet. I still have to work on the design. But the site itself works. I can hardly wait to show it off so I will. Since the site works but doesn’t look pretty, I want to invite everyone to visit the one part of the site that is ready for primetime. Of course the design of this part of the site will be changed to match the rest of the site when its finished but you can check it out right now.

Come follow the development of version2point1 with the version2point1 feed.
