Blogkeeping

I do my best to avoid blogging about the blog itself, but there’s a few notable items.

The Lounge

Google AdSense is out, The Lounge is in. I’m pleased to be the newest member of The Lounge Advertising Network’s Small Publishers Room. I read a lot of the blogs in this room and I’m honored to be included amongst them. I’m going to have to step up the quality level to keep up with the others as there is a lot of quality content coming out of that group. Which leads me to the next item…

The Blog

I’ve decided to put a lot more emphasis on blogging this year. I set an obtainable goal (52 posts, not counting this one) and have been mulling over some ideas for generating more interesting posts about more than just .NET. I’ll be still blogging about the usual .NET web development stuff (especially ASP.NET MVC, my new BFF) but there will be more commentary on current technology issues. Hopefully you will find it interesting.

I also want to create some new cheat sheets and update the existing ones. The cheat sheets have been much more popular than I expected they ever would be. I’m glad people are finding them useful and I don’t want to let them languish.

I’ve also got a web site in the works that I’m hoping will become your new favorite site (not joking). If you like discussing and keeping up with the latest .NET stuff, you’re going to like this site. More on this to come. Once I get the first version up, I’ll talk about it more.

Lastly and fittingly, least importantly, the blog name has changed. Gone is the inside joke that only one person reading this blog would even get and in with the new, much more descriptive “John Sheehan : Blog”. Fancy huh?
