So, whats this thing about again?

by Codemunkee 8/8/2008 9:29:00 AM

Someone recently asked what I "focus" on here at Ordinary Geek.

I wasn't prepared for the question, or the rambling answer that fell out of my mouth. I realized that I try to cover a lot of different things here - gaming, coding, project management and development, and some other odds and ends. Check out the categories - everything's posted for you right there.

In thinking it over this morning I hit on the answer... I'm writing about my interactions with technology. In some cases, they will involve my hobbies - gaming, electronics, coding. In other cases it will involve my work - coding, project management, leading developers. And in yet other situations it won't be one thing in particular, but it will more than likely relate to technology. Or maybe it won't. Sometimes you need to just vent or rant.

What I hope to accomplish in writing about my interactions with technology is ultimately providing you, the reader, with enough information to either help you solve a problem in your day to day life (at work, or at home) that relates to technology. Or, give you enough information to make a reasonably informed buying decision concerning a technologically-centered product (game, gadget, software). Most of all, I hope to do it in a manner that entertains, educates, and inspires you to think about it in some degree.

With that in mind, I've changed my tag to read Interactions with Technology. I think it accurately sums up what I try to share with you as much as I can, and why you come to Ordinary Geek.

In this episode, special thanks to Nelson over at Microsoft for access to Braid. I have a review coming in the next week or so. But here is the short version - you should buy this game. Right now.
