Working on next step for SeanCallanan.com

Just a quick update on what's happening on SeanCallanan.com as I have been in "thinking-mode" on what exactly I want from this site for myself and for my readers/clients/friends.

I have been reading Guy Kawasaki's book called Reality Check which is a great read on marketing and competing in a startup world.

It can be hard meeting new friends when you are an adult but not impossible. As Jerry points out (in a funnier way than I can) there are so many rules when we are adults. Twitter is fun as so many of these rules are broken or non-existent on Twitter.

Imagine chirping in on a co ... Read More »

A new beginning

By Sean Callanan on Thu, 22 Jan 2009 05:17:47 GMT

I don't know how many readers there are of this "my technical blog" when I started it I made a conscious decision to keep the technical and personal separate. I don't know why but I guess it was just a privacy thing, but things have changed.

The past 2 months have been a rollercoaster of emot ... Read More »
