Adventures in Squidland

Well I noticed my blog entries have cut down since I decided to keep the blogging to more of a personal level - but then again who needs yet another news site anyway - and lets be completely honest (I am a big boy I can take it).  It is very highly doubtful that you are heading over to my humble blog to get the latest news stories in the gaming world anyway :-)

It’s Sunday afternoon and I randomly decided to take a moment and blog about my weekend, and other recent happenings.

Hello my neglected blog

Well, its been quite a while since I posted on here, except a quick congrats to steve519 on the birth of his new daughter, and a quick mention of the friendcast, and i don’t have any real excuse, just going through the motions I guess.  Perhaps it is time for a quick status update for those of you that care what I keep myself busy with.

First of all this blog isn’t my only neglected little internet home - I also have not been keeping up with the family blog either.  I recently posted an entry over there and uploaded about 200 images that were waiting to be put on the site.  Granted that blog isn’t filled with entries on a regular basis, only when we do something or have photos to put online - but I was a bit behind.

Keeping it Interesting

So the UnlockTheAchievement.com contest is over - that turned out to be a pretty interesting little project to build - and it ended up being a pretty good success in my opinion.  As stated before it brought to light some issues on 360friendspot.com which I am looking into and moving some stuff around on the site, so if you see something funky that is probably why.

This weekend we recorded Episode #5 of the 360voice podcast.  It is a short and sweet episode, mostly just to officially release information on the big news releasing today about 360voice’s merger with gamerdna, on that same subject you can hear me speak a little on The Xbox podcast.  It is a great move for the site which will allow it to expand, flourish, and shine even more then it does today.  ChangeAgent and Fatty Chubs have all ready (mostly) moved up to Cambridge, and are rocking out as full staff at gamerdna.  No longer do they have the distraction of a day job in the way of working their 360voice (and other gamerdna properties) but the day job IS working on those sites.

I am sure there is more, but another post is just a click away when I remember what it could have been

Squid’s Status Report: Feb 4 - Feb 10

Hey Squid you skipped a week again!  Yeah I am aware, but this week of all weeks I have a pretty valid excuse, perhaps a few.  I joined a new site officially, a site is moving, and unfortunately a site is dying.  This should be an interesting update.
