What's all this, then?

So, you might have come here expecting something else entirely. You may have expected to find an enormous, comprehensive web space for me. The truth is, life changes and priorities shift.

Here are the steps I'm planning take (or have taken) concerning my online presence:

  • Move my e-mail accounts on compl33t.com to Google Apps for Domains
  • Move compl33t.com itself to flavors.me.
  • Create two Posterous accounts, one for casual blogging (blog.compl33t.com), and one for posting stuff from my phone (onthego.compl33t.com).You're reading the first one, and the second one has existed for some time.
  • Take my current Wordpress-powered site at compl33t.com offline. I'm not scrapping it, just taking it offline for now, as it has some valuable information on it concerning past projects, as well as my music. I'm still investigating a few possible solutions to hosting my projects and music.
  • Use Flickr exclusively for my Photography.
  • Align the look and feel of all these sources.
  • Acquire one or two extra domains, just for the hell of it (this is done too: compl33t.me *chuckle*, and cornelissen.me).

There are a couple of reasons I'm doing all this. Most of all being that I don't want to waste time on maintaining two or three servers and the software on it. It's distracting and I've got better things to spend my time on. Time is actually what it all boils down to. My priorities, as mentioned, have radically changed. During the day I'd like to focus on my job one-hundred-and-ten-percent, especially now. After hours I'd like to spend with my girlfriend, outdoors, or working on a new side-project. I'll also be saving a little bit of money, as soon as I get to stop one or two hosting accounts.

So yeah, this will be my space where I'll be verbose and talk about things from now on. Sometime in the future, compl33t.com may be restored to its former glory (I am a web-developer by trade, after all), but for now it's in my best interests to have all my stuff on hosted solutions.

To the future! Pröst! ;)
