Sample the Web
Description
…an employee of AOL, LLC.
I started working as a freelance blogger for AOL by chance when they bought Weblogs, Inc. in 2005. In early 2006, by choice, I took a full-time position with the company. This is my personal blog. All the opinions, thoughts, and ideas expressed herein are mine and mine alone and not in any way indicative of the opinions of either Weblogs, Inc. or AOL.
…a blogger.
I’ve been blogging since some time in 1999. I’ve had several different blogs (some semi-popular, most not), including the now-retired 3650 and a 12-inch and the group-blogged my iPod blog. The majority of my current blogging is on the site you are currently reading, Sample the Web, and on The Unofficial Apple Weblog, where I am paid to blog about all things Apple. I also occasionally blog for TV Squad, Cinematical, and Download Squad. In the past, I have used numerous different blogging tools: Radio Userland, Manila, LiveJournal, Blogger, GreyMatter, and I even hand-rolled an early version of this site on my .mac space for a while by coding each new day into a template in pico. I recently switched over to WordPress and am enjoying it immensely. I am interested in both the technologies involved with blogging and the weblog format as an emergent space for communication, discussion, and interpretation.
…a published writer.
I recently authored my first book: PSP Hacks. One of my critical articles, “Life and Text as Spectacle: Sacrificial Repetitions in Duras’s The North China Lover,” was published in Literature Film Quarterly, I have contributed to several O’Reilly books, both as a freelance writer and as tech editor for iPod & iTunes Hacks, and from August 2004 until the summer of 2005, I was writing articles for AppleMatters.
