All Things Related to blogging
My name is Chris and I have a slight problem. I like to change my blog site designs. I tend to change them like Dan Snyder changes football coaches. But I hope this one holds me for a while. It definitely has a lot going for it…and will help deliver a superb overall user experience. [...]
Why Stalk When You Can Twitter?
03.12.2007
Update 05.15.07: Yes, the twitterings to the right are for real. After taking a good look at twitter, I now see it has potential for good as well as minor evil. That’ll teach me to go off on a rant without fully understanding the source of the rant. Lesson learned. I try not to go [...]
Coming Back To Life
10.02.2006
Yep, I’m returning from a long, but much needed hiatus and feeling all the better for it. It’s amazing what a little change in scenery can do. In our case, we exchanged the go-go-go hyperdrive environment of Washington DC for the (relatively) laidback pace of Austin TX. Sometimes our body, soul, and mind just needs [...]
An Extended Hiatus
08.07.2006
Friends and readers, I am alive and well, but its looking like I need to take a break from blogging for a little while longer. Our 1500 mile move from Virginia to Texas went great and now its time to focus on settling into our new home. Don’t worry…there will be more WorkPlay coming soon, [...]
I Don’t Like RSS And Newsreaders
04.21.2006
See, here’s the thing…most of us take great pride in creating an interesting, provocative, web experience through our blogs. But, if you only get your blog content from a newsreader, you miss the whole experience. It’s kinda like listening to your favorite band on AM radio…the sound is there, but it’s less than an optimal [...]
A Special Request for Austinites
04.15.2006
I’m planning something rather BIG and could use some help. If you’re living in or around Austin, TX, shoot me an email at baileyworkplay[AT]gmail[DOT]com. I’ll have more details soon…
A New (New) Beginning With Some More Changes
03.05.2006
Okay, okay…if you’re wondering what in the hell is going on, you’re probably not alone. I kind of wonder the same thing at times. I’ve made an about face and ended the experiment which was Drupal. Too much trouble and too much work. I never felt comfortable with the interface and many of the plugins [...]
Where Ya Been Hiding?
01.18.2006
The blogging has been sparse lately and for that I apologize. It’s the result of having a few extra irons in the fire. The day work for my association has required a new intensity in the past couple of weeks. As we enter a new year, my CEO and Board are placing greater emphasis on [...]
Warmest Thanksgiving Thoughts
11.24.2005
My friend Kevin Holland linked to a brilliant idea and one very appropriate for today: thank your first commenter. I remember my first comment and commenter so very well. It was Curt Rosengren and it was he who made a significant impact on whether this blog would keep going. Up to that point, I had [...]
A Thought On The Box
09.23.2005
I went to a facilitors workshop this morning and the one thing that the presenter just kept hammering away at was the need to "think outside the box." Can we bury this overused phrase now? Pretty Please? Seriously, if you find that it’s necessary to think outside the box, you better take a good look [...]
