Fear and Loathing on the Learning Curve: Observations on Life, Tech and Web Design from a Slightly Misanthropic Mind

Mission Statement (Old)

As recom­men­ded by the starting-up guidelines on the WordPress Codex. This is mainly to serve as a focus-reminder for me.

  1. What am I going to do with this? As well as other top­ical item, this blog will serve as a plat­form for me to write about my cur­rent exper­i­ences in edu­ca­tion; my doubts, con­vic­tions, pas­sions, flameups and trips.
  2. Who is going to read this? Collegues, friends, trawl­ers, crawl­ers, kids and crack whores. Okay, maybe not crack whores. Ages 16–25?
  3. What kinds of inform­a­tion will I be post­ing? Advice, journ­als, stor­ies, opin­ions. Tips, how-tos and so on. Mainly the first lot.
  4. Why am I doing this? Because I want to write, to pub­lish my thoughts and ideas and cre­ate some­thing that people might find inter­est­ing, or enga­ging, even for a moment.
  5. Who am I doing this for? Myself, and every other slightly dis­en­fran­chised col­lege kid out there. See Q2.
  6. How often am I going to be post­ing and adding inform­a­tion? Hopefully daily or every other day, if I can keep it up. Less fre­quently for higher qual­ity mater­ial. Okay, at least once a week.
