Friggin’ Birds

Saturday, January 24th, 2009

I live on the fourth floor, with that comes living at tree level. What comes with living at tree level is hearing what is going on at tree level.

Right outside my windows there is a massive tree. In that massive tree there is a massive amount of birds that will never shut up. Even my neighbor on the first floor mentioned how noisy they are, I couldn’t agree any more.

They are so loud that I have to close my window just to dampen the sound, but still…the sound bleeds in. Yeah I am in an older building with thin glass windows, but those birds are loud. There has to be at least over 9000 of them! No joke!

I like birds though, they are some amazing looking creatures, plus I love to take pictures of birds. I guess in the future I will be a bird watcher, catalogging all the beautiful birds that I see.

I realized I should of used the word aviary or avian in this post. That would of made me sound like a bird avian enthusiast!

A Design Blog?

Friday, January 23rd, 2009

Working in the web industry makes me think about the way things are done in it and how things should be bettered, the problem is this ideas fall on deaf ears. I just really never get my ideas out…by the time I get around to writing them I already forgot them. I know I should take notes, but I often forget.

The thing I want to do is write for a design blog or just add a blog to my portfolio. I bring this up because I am redesigning my portfolio to look more professional and really help myself get established as someone who knows what he talks about. Bah!

I hear good things about a blog added on to your portfolio site, the problem with that is…everyone has a blog. I also really don’t find a lot of designers/developers blogs to be that useful. Granted there are some that I have being fed into my Google Reader, but for the most part it feels like I am putting my head inside a giant metal room with everyone yelling the same thing at different intervals.

What I am getting at is that, I really want to share my ideas on web development, how I do things, and how certain things just don’t make sense.

I can’t do it here because, Zamikazi has just become a place for me to vent and be an overall idiot…which I prefer. I could post them here but this site really doesn’t showcase my work. Maybe, I really don’t know.

I guess this is just something I will ponder.
