My portfolio and other news….

With some clever reading a little mental grease from a friend I’ve been able to add my portfolio to SLR in a pretty snazzy looking flash applet. I’ve created a new sub-head for “Personal Links” and my ever-evolving portfolio is linked there.

I’m always open to interpretations and I would love a constructive critique if anyone felt so inclined. It’ll always be an ever-changing work-in-progress.

In other SLR news. I’ve been experimenting with a new blog/news service called Newsvine. If you scroll down the column on the right, you’ll find a new sub head: “Latest from SDulai.Newsvine.com”. I’m still not quite sure how well the service works, but it seems to make a valiant attempt at combining a blog with the community news aspects of sites like Digg.com. Take it for a whirl and let me know what you think.

Lastly, I’ve been tinkering with the idea of changing the look of SLR. If there’s something you’d like to see or if you have any suggestions, drop me a line.

Dear Me, how’s it going, call your mother more often #JCarn

Yup, once again, welcome to my latest post for #JCarn. The Carnival of Journalism is a loose collection of journalism thinkers (and people like me) who get together to post on their blogs with their reflections on a given prompt. This month I had the opportunity to host and asked folks to write themselves a letter. As it’s the end of the year, it felt like the right time to look inward. Plus we spend so much time looking outside of ourselves at the industry/government/tech trends/government that self-reflection becomes that icky no-no that we seldom tackle. I know it’s scary, but come’on, let’s do this thing! Why? Because YOLO? “Write a letter to your younger self.” Dear Me, I’m writing to you from 2013, a little wiser, a little slower and probably still confused about why more people don’t do the right thing, but don’t let that stop you from trying. We’ve always been stubborn. I’m packing for a trip to India right now as I write this– don’t worry, you’re not married and yup, you’ll eventually leave California and actually get to fly in a plane– it’s been a wild couple of days. The last 10 or […]

Write a letter to yourself! #JCarn Dec prompt

Howdy folks, After trading some e-mails with David for the great reboot of #JCarn– we were trading prompt ideas and well, I’ll be your host for December. Oh how rude of me, I’m being such a terrible host, let me take your coat, come on in, wipe your feet. As we race toward the end of 2013, it’s a natural time for reflection and in that spirit I think I’ve come up with what I hope will be an enjoyable and perhaps even cathartic prompt: “What would you write if you could send a letter to your fifteen-year-old self?” For December I would like you all to write a letter to your younger self. You can write about anything, no rules, no apologies. You may like to share with yourself advice, things to look out for, things you wished you did differently, regrets, hopes, what you’ve learned, about your life, choices… or just about anything that is on your mind. Ideally these are deeply personal to you and I hope it’ll be enlightening to others in its universality to the human condition. More often than not, if it’s important to you, it’s important to others. And who knows, maybe you’ll […]
