Hello world!This is the first of many future posts on my newly designed website. I’ll be honest. This is about my second or third attempt to maintain a frequently updated site and frankly there is reason to be skeptical about my ability to be consistent this time. However, I have different motivation this time: frustration and cockiness.

Motivating Factor #1: Frustration

Point blank, I’m fed up with the quality of content across the web especially with blogs. After reading several mainstream blogs across the web, I find most of them to be uninspiring. I spend probably a good hour or so checking my feeds over the years, I’ve seen the quality of content become more and more diluted.

Nowadays, blogging usually works like this: one person discovers something new and then instantly, it’s regurgitated across the web with each copycat just posting a link to the original content.As consumers of information, we have exacerbated this problem. Ubiquitous access has turned the Internet into an information buffet. As a result we are more concerned with the quantity of information we are able to consume, rather than the quality of the content.

Motivating Factor #2: Cockiness

My frustration has pushed me to the point where I want to join the ranks because I’m tired of eating at the buffet. I just want quality information. Frankly, I feel that I can do a better job than most other blogs. Only time will tell.

On this site, I will focus on three main passions: technology, design, culture. Most of the content will cover at least one of these topics or possibly a combination of them. Since my motivation is “quality, not quantity”, expect roughly 2-3 posts per week. This website will be about learning and sharing.
