On Internet Writing Styles

by Michael Ridley on May 6th, 2009 at 10:16 pm
Posted In: life

I bury the lead. A lot. Most of the time, in fact. I am aware of the inverted pyramid structure for writing newspaper articles. I understand search engine optimization.

by Michael Ridley on April 22nd, 2009 at 5:19 pm
Posted In: tech

I had an unofficial New Years resolution for myself to update this site more often.  So far I’m not off to a great start in 2009.  I have created a Google profile for myself, as Google now includes profiles in their search results.
