Happy New Year 2012!

Polar Bears

You know, I realized that I never did a Happy New Year posting. It seems to have dropped off the face of the planet. I don't know why. I used to state my resolutions and then review at the end of the year how well I did. That is a little bizarre. Quite unlike me.

This is my New Year posting. But, this year, I am not going to do anything about resolutions. I am going to skip them for one more year and then pick it up again next year. I will even set in my calendar that I am going to do this. It will remind me that I am not a robot and nor am I something for show on the Internet. I don't know why I suddenly think that but something did. Deep within the recess of my highly evolved brain (*cough*) something tells me I need to rethink about how I share information on the Internet.

So, here is to my happiness plan for 2012. Should it be awesome and do very well.

About Me

Shane Birley is a blogger, huge geeky nerd, web developer, poet, and creative writer based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. He is a partner at Left Right Minds, a web development, arts management, business blogging and on line marketing company.

buy the book, blog your world, feel like a million bucks

Just in case you didn't know, I co-wrote Blogging For Dummies! Before you send me any congratulations, questions, flowers, or blow me any number of kisses  - why don't you go buy ten copies and make me rich and famous.  

Or you could just buy a copy since it is a really good book and it has loads of great information for those of you out there who want to jump into blogging because it is fun and exciting.

podcasting

What else do I do? I talk out loud, record it, and post it on line. I chatter about all kinds of things. Some of the things are nerdy, some professional, and some of them are very much NSFW. Why? Because do them for myself and my non-work life. You can be the judge.

events

I do a little traveling here and there for technology conferences and what not. Here are the ones I am going to next or have attended recently.
