First post. Not first post ever…(by this time, who hasn’t posted on FB or tweeted on TW at least once?)…but first post as a founder/ceo/technologist on a blog designed to capture thoughts and promote oneself.
FICTIONAL SCENE OPEN.
(enters boardroom of the interwebs)
JD: Friends and complete strangers, thanks for joining me today. Hope you enjoy our muffins and refreshments. Let me steer the purpose of this blog.
Blogger #1: You’re doing a blog?? How original…
JD: Thanks! As I was saying, the purpose of this blog is to diary my learnings in succeeding and failing in technology stuff. I’ve started 3 startups, been a part of 2 other small businesses, and before that, produced over 50 independent film & television projects. I’ve yet to join the club that is the satirical title of this blog.
Troll #1: Are you even in the two comma club, haha?
JD: No.
(beat)
JD: So anyways, I’ve got a startup now called SocialMatterz. It’s in the social marketing automation space. I’ll use this blog to write, refer, reply, and track interesting things related to SocialMatterz and anything else in tech. The idea is that there are other people are like me — we’ll call them “one comma clubbers”. OCC people don’t usually write blogs because they’re too busy or too unsuccessful or too unrelevant. But I think there’s value in seeing exactly how a Single Comma gets to Two Commas, and then, becomes a Three Comma —
Internet: Good luck.
