FIGHTING BLOGGER vs TECHNOLOGY

September 17, 2024 by David Gillaspie

The fighting blogger is more than stirring things up. It’s responding to problems, not making problems. When the problem is technology, the fight is on. What is the current technology problem? DNS propagation.

ROCKY RELATIONSHIP WITH WRITING?

September 11, 2024 by David Gillaspie

My rocky relationship with writing took a turn yesterday. It happens, but this one was avoidable. Boomerpdx was offline for ten hours. The longest ten hours of my . . . not my life. I just did other writer things. What writer things?

GIVING UP, BUT NOT A QUITTER?

May 4, 2024 by David Gillaspie

Giving up is different than quitting. Really. Quitting means done, all over, finished. The Day I Quit. Giving up is a longer process. One is a reaction, the other a journey. Who’s got the map?

HEALTH JOURNEY ON A ROUGH ROAD

May 2, 2024 by David Gillaspie

A ‘health journey’ is a phrase used by people with lots of doctor appointments. If you’re old enough you either take that rough road yourself, or you show up for others on it. Personally, I’ve never liked the term. I like it even less when it applies to young people coming down with old people […]

BLOG TRAFFIC: THE LINE STARTS OVER THERE

March 10, 2024 by David Gillaspie

Blog traffic is easy, so expect instant results. Start a blog, write a post, and stand back. The clouds part, the rain stops. You stand in the warming sunshine, not the blazing warm that melts asphalt in parking lot, but the cuddly warm of wearing strap t-shirts and cargo shorts. Let’s warm it up.

TOO OLD FOR A NEW STORY?

February 18, 2024 by David Gillaspie

Too old to start over? The big hurdles begin with the definition of ‘start’ and ‘over.’ To start, just to start, is a fight against inertia to move forward on a project. There’s that page for a new story. The letters won’t get on there by themselves.

CONTENT CREATION QUESTIONS TO ASK

September 10, 2023 by David Gillaspie

Content creation are not my two favorite words. Content Creator sounds like a title bestowed by the Gods of the Internet. But if your goal is creating content for an online audience, where do you start? Ask a blogger with a track record of post production if you know one. If you don’t know an […]

FIELD BLOGGER BREAKDOWN

April 26, 2016 by David Gillaspie

When a field blogger in the field gets locked out. There I was, gentle BoomerPdx reader, in the field. A field blogger. Just outside was blue sky, bright sun, and a swimming pool with northern lights at night. It wasn’t night time, not yet, when I found my problem. The problem wasn’t the temptation to […]
