Moving On

Hello All,
This blog was originally started while I was in college, built to help businesses market to college students more effectively.  As I spent time on my startup (which did not market to college students) time for blogging was eliminated, and I put my head down and focused.

As the web has evolved so have I, so rather than continuing here I'll be running a new blog at BrentLamphier.com (where the focus will not be marketing to college students).  However, the time when that starts is TBD

For now, would love to connect with you on twitter

@brentlamphier

Cheers, and thanks for reading

Brent

Hey Brent,

It's been a long time man. We first connected - when was it - in the early days of Seth's blog? Plus or minus a few months it's been a long time.

I feel you about marketing to college students; I started my first TypePad blog for the same reason all those years ago. Just like yours my focus has really changed but I still have fond memories of the days when I'd hunker down and pump out a post for a feedburner audience of >100, but a real readership of 2 or 3! Not that life isn't good now... it is. But it was simpler then. That shit was fun.

I hope you're finding tremendous success with Athleon. I'm sure you're crushing it.

Keep living the dream brother.

P.S. Please, please backup your blog. I've often wished I could revisit my posts from yesteryear (if only for nostalgia's sake) but back then I didn't have the good sense to export it. Even though I never wrote anything earth-shattering I still wish I had those old posts to read for the hell of it. Don't make my mistake.

I meant to say "a feedburner audience of <100." My point was that there was a time that I'd write for nearly 0 people but still find satisfaction in it. And I kind of miss the times when that was feasible.

I see on your article you have a couple images either hosted from your page or from a offsite provider. I wondered what you found is the top way, having the pics outsourced on a service like imageshack or is it best to have the pics completely placed on your own server?
