Social media? Yes, but not like Facebook and not like Twitter.
Blogging is people taking the time to write or photograph or paint their lives, their loves, their passions.

BOOM! 1000th post
This GitHub/CoderDojo announcement was my 1000th post on tekArtist. 🙂
It’s been a wild ride since my first post under that name online in 2006, originally on Blogger, but promptly followed by a move to WordPress in 2007. It ultimately led to me getting the best job of my life at Automattic, wrangling up the most-awesomest-est WordPress.com code everyday, just for you. Turns out happiness is a

Blogging for Business: How to Humanize Your Business and Connect with Customers
The scenario is all too common: you have a question for company X, you call their “customer service” number, and you struggle to yell instructions at a pseudo-human recording for half-an-hour.
The ubiquity of the process reinforces my position that robots will one day completely colonize all interactions between businesses and their clientele. Already, so many businesses seem like impersonal monoliths: flat, boring and impenetrable.
But a remedy to this alienating distance is readily available to even the smallest business. It can help make your business more human, more engaging, and more interactive for your customers.
It’s called blogging.
