Gawd I missed this one! Saw this post from the GenJuice Press page and thought it would be a great idea to attend.

How did it go by the way?

Re: Ever Dream of Being a Janitor?

That's awesome. =). I'm happy for you - that you know what you want to do. All the best!

This was great! I am in High School and have many possibilities ahead of me, however, I aspire to become a janitor. I really do. I want to work in the evenings, because I function best after dark. I also like the idea of being in a building with only a few people - I love the thought of solitude. I also enjoy cleaning.
It really is a humble job, I'd rather be one of those people who are important to society, but not really seen.

Yeah, definitely, that didn't come to mind. =). Having friends who you can talk things through wiht is definitely helpful.

Depending on the issue, I have a few buddies that I can talk things through. It gives the other perspective I'm looking for sometimes.

Re: Why I Love Social Media

Derrick Kwa — Sat, 02 Jan 2010 12:07:23 -0000

=). Glad you agree. And well, I don't think we should let anyone "forcefeed" to us what social media is. We, the bloggers, the community, should define it.

i must have slept through this post! lolx

nice entry Derrick. it creates a much more palatable version of social media, than most of whats been forcefed down our throats recently. :)

Re: Why I Love Social Media

Derrick Kwa — Fri, 01 Jan 2010 12:06:10 -0000

Haha, thanks =). And I'm glad you responded too. The night would never have happened if not for you. So, thank you.

Whoa!!! You're really, really quick!! Fantastic entry.

"Conversations, community and friendships, with a dash of spontaneity." I cannot agree with you more.

Glad to have responded to your tweet. Had a lot fun. :)

Nice to see you back. :)

Re: Merry Christmas

CobyMarshal — Tue, 29 Dec 2009 08:48:57 -0000

Merry Christmas to you too. I hope you enjoyed your holidays. Just as an idea since everybody is thinking green these days, try using artificial Christmas trees instead of real ones. We can preserve the forest this way and these artificial trees can be used for many years to come.

Re: Community vs Association

Derrick Kwa — Sun, 15 Feb 2009 09:32:19 -0000

Well, in that case, wouldn't a simple directory suffice?

And yeah, while I do see where you're coming from, the value that provides is more for people looking for a blogger - PR people from companies, etc. But for the average blogger out there, does that really provide that much value?

Re: Community vs Association

mhisham — Fri, 13 Feb 2009 04:30:54 -0000

Hmmmm ... for perhaps very different reason, I really think the Association is an excellent idea. Right now, for the rest of the people who are not clued in on bloggers or their blogs or their dishevelled community, there simply is no easy or convenient way to find their way around.

If they needed to find a particular kind of blogger, they would ask the obvious blogger they know, and that could mean that, that particular blogger become the unofficial contact person for every other blogger. Step in the association, and it would be an easier task.

hummmm ... let's re-think and discuss this again ... when you are back to blogging? ;)

hehe,
Sham

Xin Nian Hao!

Glad you are back. Else I would not know that there is an association set up.
What ever the association for. The readers takes what they read with discretion.

Re: Community vs Association

Derrick Kwa — Thu, 22 Jan 2009 10:46:54 -0000

Thanks. =). Glad you agree.

wow, i think you nailed it. "What we need is to build the community. Not establish an association."

props dude -)
