Dipping into the Blogpond Has MOVED

About Me

PLEASE VISIT MY NEW DOMAIN - BLOGPOND.COM.AU

This website is a blog. If you’re not sure exactly what that means, please see What is a Blog?

I can’t remember how long I’ve been using the internet. It’s been a long time, but I still remember the old 14.4k dialup modem. I’ve had a PC for 20 years (of course not the same one!).

Last year I (we) set up 2 Australian websites - dLook (an online business directory) and Obits (which lists funeral notices and a directory of funeral industry businesses). I now know this is termed an “internet startup”. I now know this involves putting just about everything you own on the line, biting off more than you can chew, and chewing like crazy (and trying not to choke in the process)!

I’m “thirty-something”, and am happily married with 4 children, aged 3 to 15. I Live in the Sutherland Shire (colloquially known as “God’s Country” to its residents) about 30 minutes South of Sydney.

I have a Bachelor of Commerce (Management & Information Systems) and a Graduate Diploma in Education. I have been self employed for 7 years.

    Hi Luke

    Many thanks for dropping by - does that mean I have to post daily? Oh the pressure ;)

    I still find the whole duplication issue just outrageous & shall be on the look out for a follow up.

    Hello Meg

    Thanks for blogrolling me. I will reciprocate.

    Your top 100 Aussie Blogs is interesting.

    Good luck with developing your business. I am happy that I don’t have to look to my blog for my paycheck. I think that would be a big barrier for me. I would find the pressure to perform, too much. Horses for courses and I am glad to be leaving that puzzle to my current employer, who generally gets good value for money.

    Hi Colin

    Please don’t feel obliged to reciprocate! That’s not why you were added!

    I don’t blog for a living either (because I don’t make money from this blog). I dare say I’d be starving by now ;)

    Of course, there is some subtle advertising for my business….
