Hello what's left of my MySpace blog readership.
I would tell you where I've been but it's not that exciting. In fact there are a lot of clouds and what looks to be leftover teenage angst floating around.
I will tell you that the all the MySpace redesigning and tweaking has really undermined my desire to blog; the silver lining is that I am getting back into futzing with a big-boy blog on my website Crockeronline.com.
Really all this falls under what has been under my skin for the last year or so- SELF PROMOTION. I fight it and fight it and fight it; but in the realm of web content, er, NEW MEDIA, something that is affecting so many of us more and more these days- it's beginning to be a desperately important aspect of making one's way in on the world wide tube(someday, we'll all start saying internet again without having to think up a snarky different name for it).
In the past few months I have been forcing myself to be a more diligent self-promoter and I thank you all for putting up with me. SEE?! I have to apologize for all the MySpace postings about my band, or web shows, or whatever. I shouldn't have to do that. I should be proud of the things I have done and be excited to share it all with you.
And I am. I am proud of all the blogs and Townland CD hawkings, the SuperEgo Supershorts and Kitten Vs. Newborn episodes. It's all what makes me super happy to have an outlet with a devoted readership to write for and like the salad days of the Damon Gentry/Jeff Crocker MySpace Blog challenge, I strive to make everything better for each and every one of you. Because you deserve the best in Jeff Crocker news- and by hook or by crook, you're going to get it.
Which means i'm going to move over to Wordpress as soon as I get everything working properly with MySQL databases and PHPadmin servers.
