Computex is over, yet work hasn’t slowed down…

by

The first week of June was Computex, which is usually the busiest week for me in the year, but for whatever reason, I’m getting requests to do freelance work from left, right and centre. I guess it’s a good thing as work has been slow, which in return means I haven’t been making a lot of money. Things are looking up though and if things work out as they appear, then it looks like I’ll be doing a lot better than I have since I moved to Taiwan. I guess these things take time, but when you’re down and out it just doesn’t look like there’s an end to the misery, but apparently there is

Otherwise life is treating me pretty good these days, need to start moving my ass, as I’ve been getting way too lazy and put on too much extra weight these past six months or so. I just don’t have the drive to go to the gym and there’s really no-where to walk to where I live now, so I don’t go out for walks either. Anyone got ideas on how to make me want to move my backside? 😀

I’ve got a few new eateries I need to add to the blog as well and I’m looking at sorting out a new design for the blog, as I’m seeing this one all over the place. Sure, it’s a good template, but I think I’m going to try to go with something a bit more original.

Anyhow, I’ll try to at least update things once a month, as I’ve been really bad at this whole bloging thing. Until next time…

Computex aftermath

So, the start of netbooknews.com went much better than I hoped for and with Computex over and done with the real work is starting. I have to say that I’m very happy with the team behind the site and as long as we can keep up the momentum that we’ve started, the site should keep gaining popularity quickly.

Doing video content is an entirely new thing to me, but it turns out that at least the stuff I do isn’t all that difficult after all. It still freaks me out to listen to my own voice, but I guess this is normal. Still a lot of things to learn about how to do it all properly, but I guess I’m at least ok both in front and behind the camera considering I’ve never done any of this before. I’ve also figured out how to edit video, although this is still a serious learning process.

Apart from all this, life is pretty good. I even had someone I know from the UK that was over here for Computex come up to me and commenting on how happy I looked. I guess that’s a good thing 😀 It’s funny how things work out sometimes, but it looks like once again I’m off to new and exciting things, just fingers crossed that it all works out.

I’ve got a couple of  things I need to finish off and get posted on the site and I’m really sorry about the lack of updates, but the past few weeks have been insanely busy.

So many things going on

Wow, sorry for the utter lack up updates, but I’ve been soooo busy as of lately.

So, I’m in the middle of launching netbooknews.com and we’ve already got content up on the site, but the official launch isn’t until Monday next week.

We’re going to be crazy busy covering Computex next week and I’m still going to cover the show for my old company as well.

Once Computex is over I’ll try to get a bit better at this whole blogging thing, but until then, you’ll have to make do with this.
