Fortunately for me, I’m not in it to get rich, it’s simply a way to establish public credibility and build my own intellectual property portfolio. It’s an ongoing press release, article marketing, a free full-page newspaper ad, it’s an interactive portfolio, etc. And I’m not too worried about it either.

sized projects. I guess what you are doing here is applying the same concept to the world of blogging, which is really cool. I have a separate blog about my project to restore a vintage sidecar motorcycle, but that’s only because the topic is highly technical and might bore most folks. That’s all I was saying.

That’s why I started telling my would be buisness partners, let’s do little projects until we get into a conflict… the way we handle this conflict will likely show how much we trust each other (or how likely we will trust each other later).

It’s about fan bases more than project per project, so people grow with you and they grow through you. They had no concept of the person writing. It was from a group called “Amanaska&# , which is a project out of Australia by a man called Simon Lewis. It’s just a way of making a personal update.
