WHAT'S MIKE UP TO

For those of you who haven’t done it, writing an initial blog entry is a difficult task. It is your grand entrance into the world of web communication on a personal level. And it’s not easy to pen just the right words, convey the appropriate message, and draw people into what you hope will be a continual portal of communication and intrigue for those you hope to win over, and ultimately capture as return readers.

I’d like to say that this personal website was recently produced — but the fine work of Tyler Dunn of Chicago was actually completed months ago. It’s taken me that long to draft my initial commentary and go live.

My idea for a personal website was born out of my general interest to share aspects of my life and offer up my own commentary on various topics — some minute, others global and still others of little influence or interest to most people — but are self medicating to a certain extent.

Reviewing the personal websites of others, I was most impressed with sites by such influential figures as Tom Cruise and Marc Ecko — spectacular design and even better content. I won’t be starring in any movies soon — and my advertising efforts won’t allow me to produce a viral video of the tagging of Air Force One, but perhaps in my own little way, I’ll have influence or commentary over something or someone.

Please join me on this journey and return back soon. The next entry should be just a bit easier to write…at least the site will be up.
