A (not so) Quick Sketch Biography of Goldie Katsu

May 31, 2007

I’ve been thinking about Chris Brogan’s DIY Autobiography Kit, well, since he published it on his blog. I thought I’d join in and write up my Quick (or maybe not so quick) Sketch Biography, so here it goes.

Video Recording

May 4, 2007

Now I’ve recorded a bit of a video greeting on ustream and also embedded it on the page. It was amusing. I found recording a video hello as challenging as recording my outgoing message on an answering machine/voicemail box. For someone who was quite the dramatist as a child it is interesting finding myself a [...]

With all these great tools and portals and new thangs out there it seemed time to add a blog to the mix to tie in the twitters and the kyte.tv and the whatnot else. Maybe I’ll even have something to say. Right now this is more of a test platform to try out stuff but [...]
