New Years 5 for AIS

So around midnight tonight I heard a rumor that it’s going to be like, 2007 or some crazy shit. I’m preparing for a great party and doing some life adjustments when the clock strikes 12. Some of y’all have already made your New Years resolutions and some of ya’s might be of the “resolutions are just pointless crap and no one keeps them anyhow” camp. But I’ll be giving a few things a helluva shot this year to try and make life a little better for myself and my family.

I’ve got my personal resolutions all lined up in a nice tidy row ready for takeoff but I’ve also decided to make some “online resolutions” after reading a post made by Brian Clark. He did a list of 5 blogging resolutions so I’ve sat down and thought long and hard about the direction of my entire “online life” and where I want to go in the coming year.

1. I will get off my ass and get my blog skins/eBay store layout/Myspace layout site running. I’ve been bloody well been putting this off for 3 years now, it’s time to shit or get off the pot. I choose to shit.

2. I will stop feeling guilty about “not doing well enough” with my readership numbers here at AIS. If people read me, awesome. If not, no sweat off my balls. I can lead horses to water and hand them the damn straw but I can’t make them….aw hell you know the rest.

3. I will get off my ass (again) and go buy the digital scale I need to start running eBay auctions. I’ve been letting stuff pile up in the “eBay” box but have yet to get any of it up.

4. I will make a serious effort to massively improve and promote my radio show. I will get the necessary work done that I’ve been putting off because I’m too damn worried it won’t work out and I’m unorganized to boot.

5. I will keep up with the much needed maintenance around here. Pages have gone to the wayside and need updating/re-vamping. Not to mention I have a list of features and items I’d like to incorporate here. It’s time to get organized and pay some attention to this poor site.

So there we go, I think I’ll print these out and stick them to my wall to remind myself not to be a sally and just get this shit done.

If you have a spare moment and are up for it maybe you could post your 5 online resolutions :) If ya do lemme know so I can go take a peek!

    2. Utilize Copyblogger more
    3. Post regularly
    4. Edit my posts
    5. Participate more – like what I am doing right now:)

    I don’t make New Years’ resolutions. It never fails that when I make one, something drastic happens in my life that makes it impossible to even think of following thru with it.

    I just spent the past 4 months having my website and myspace page redesigned, so if I can offer you any advice on getting things done it would be to stay clear of Romanian programmers. Indians are ok. The ones from India, not the ones who own casinos, at least as far as computer work goes.

    Glad I can help
