I am currently looking for an available domain to use, as well as deciding whether to stick with the Blogger platform, or switch to Wordpress. I usually am very busy and don't have much time to do what I love to do; write, discuss and debate topics that interest me.<br /><br />Now, I am spending less time working on developing and designing <a href="http://www.colbertondemand.com/">Colbert On Demand</a>, and have reduced my workload for the next few months to come I will have more time to dedicate to creating and developing my own (blog) news site. In the time that this blog has been sitting idle, I have worked on writing and editing for <a href="http://www.themulife.com/">The Mu Life</a>, and <a href="http://insidesocialnews.blogspot.com/">Inside Social News</a>, as well as contributing to several other prominent blogs like <a href="http://tech.cybernetnews.com/">CyberNet News</a>, in any way I can.<br /><br />Just recently I joined the start-up, <a href="http://www.sociallygiven.com/blog">Socially Given</a>, a social blog of sorts, dedicated to donating 100% of it's ad revenue from the blog, and affiliated blogs to charity. When I fully establish my blog, I will be dedicating a portion of my ad revenue to Socially Given for charity.<br /><br />Here's some popular article's I've written or contributed significantly to not long ago:<br /><ul><li><a href="http://themulife.com/?p=319">Ad Revenue Sharing In Social Media</a></li><li><a href="http://themulife.com/?p=255">The Digg Economy: Socialist Bookmarking</a></li></ul>In the coming month, I should have my blog set up, as well as maybe a new website or two that I'll be working on. I will post any news on work I do for any of the above blogs and websites listed, and keep you up to date on any new website start-ups I may develop. Stay tuned!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/25633720-7352961278676857097?l=curtissthompson.blogspot.com'/></div>c.thompsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13077921190840368560noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25633720.post-1158035194944838002006-09-11T23:26:00.000-05:002006-09-11T23:26:35.003-05:00CompUSA is offering the Xbox 360 Platinum System for $50 off the original price of $399.99!
