Thing # 2

I went really bland picking my posting name and the name of my blog. I wanted to remain pretty professional, so that threw out most of my first kind of gut instinct names, and I figured it would be safest to just go as simple as possible. I chose my first initial and last name and 23... because of the 23 things we're suppose to do. It's not imaginative or playful or creative, but it gets the job done and I don't have to worry about offending anyone or coming across as unprofessional.

I feel fairly comfortable with most things that have to do with the computer or internet. I don't know a ton of technical stuff about the mechanics or HTML or javascript or that kind of stuff, but I feel like I know enough to learn quickly when presented with new things. Creating this blog was pretty easy for me. I've blogged before, as a way to keep in touch with friends and as a way to continue to write for an audience after graduation, so the format is familiar to me.

I created an avatar that looked sort of similar to me. Again, my first gut instincts were to create an avatar that didn't cater so much to my actual physical being but then again I wanted to try to take this seriously. I'm sure the more comfortable I get with this, and with this class, I'll probably change the avatar to look more ridiculous. Later. Maybe.
