Looking Back and Forwards

I thought I’d step back for a bit and reflect on the progress and success of my blog, after re-reading Jonathans 2008 New Year post.

Like Jonathan, I like to measure my personal success, not the amount off visits or clicks I get. What I was aiming to do, was have a constant flow of blog posts. At first I thought that was every second day, then every 3.5 days, and then eventually weekly, followed by monthly. What I realized is blog worthy information isn’t constant. It seems to follow the financial climate more than anything else, in the sense that blog worthy topics are typically new toys to show the Internet, and the like.

So for the last few months, my schedule has been some what random and based around life’s clock. That said, I still try to make an effort of finding something to blog about at least once a month. I still declare my blog as alive, and not dead, however slow or fast the updates be.

To me, I will call this blog dead when I feel that blogging is a chore, and not after 3 months on inactivity. Summing up, I have enjoyed writing these blog posts, and I am amazed at the amount of readers and subscribers to my blog. I’m hoping to keep this running until the end of this year and onwards. Lets see how this goes.

Autocad pump assignment

The assignment is to pump water up the hight of 6 meters using manual labour or the wind. I’ve talked about this in a few blog posts, this is basically a test to see how well motion path animation is on AutoCAD, and how well flickr video is.

This also tests how well, flickr blogs it to my blog, let’s see how well it goes.

[Update]
Looks like it’s blogged alright, and it looks all pretty, which is nice.

Blogging days

To substain a good source of freshness, I’m changing from daily blogging to Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday. This gives me a few more days to write blogs up (I struggle to find the time at the moment to blog).

Ps. One of my assignments got extended so I’m not “assignment free” :<, although It’s not like I’m going to change the assignment so I’m not worrying.
