Going mobile and back to social

Downtown Austin at Sunset after a rain from Jon Ray's parking garage.

This post is being written as I stand on top of my parking garage, an area of my building in downtown Austin that has absolutely no WiFi signal. Yes, I stood in line, did my time (4 hours) and am now the proud owner of an iPhone 3G, which means this post is being typed on a tiny digital keyboard with the Wordpress iPhone application and then uploaded via a AT&T’s 3G network. Ha. I read that in the old days if you wanted to upload your thoughts to the web you had to go through a 10 minute dial-up process and then use key commands to navigate through something called usenet groups. You couldn’t even upload pictures! How did people survive? ; )

Yes, I’m back everyone and with a new blog design. What do you think? From now on I’ll be separating everything into four categories, so that you can tune into only what is important to you. They are:

-Social Media
-Marketing/PR
-Video Production
-Other Stuff

I’m off of my sabatical, taking on a ton of new projects and looking forward to meeting a lot of new people. I have been terrible about getting out in the real world and actually meeting all of the wonderful contacts I’ve made in the virtual world. That is just mean of me and I apologize for being so distant. If you have some free time I would love to meet you and spend some time talking about who you are, what makes you tick and the projects that you love.

Find me on Twitter (@jonray) and let’s get together for coffee, lunch or drinks soon. I’m excited and ready to get back in the swing of things.

Lots of cool projects coming up in my world, let’s find a way to make them bigger and work together!

Did I mention that I’m excited! ; )

DISCLOSURE: I couldn’t get my the iPhone Wordpress App to upload the picture I took correctly. So, I had to login on my MacBook and add the picture that way. When uploading with a picture attached I kept getting an error. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Just trying out some new types of writing to those who read this far. Apparently, I’m a writer now, so that means I have to find a voice, supposedly. Feel free to tell me exactly how you felt about this style, story, content, etc. Hurt my feelings if you want, I just need the feedback or the people who pay me money will beat me with a bone whip. And if you're enjoying this blog, consider commenting or subscribing for free.
