Social Media Galore
Posted by Mac in Blogging, Photography, Technology, The Internet on 05.02.2010
“Social medias” are perhaps the biggest media buzz word these days. Especially the massive popularity of Twitter and Facebook indicates that these services just don’t go by unnoticed by the establishment anymore. Even the traditional medias write about these Internet phenomenons that used to be rather “obscure”, probably because a lot of the journalists are hooked too. Here in Norway Facebook is “the” thing, I think we got something like 2 million profiles out of 4,6 million inhabitants. I’ve had a profile on FB for quite a while, it’s a fairly intimate affair as I’m somewhat picky with who I “friend” and I prefer to keep a low profile. However, from various reasons (work related) I need to know and understand how this, and other networks function. Hence I got profiles in several places and try to keep up with the ever expanding functionality. Read the rest of this entry »
The Confessions Of A Blogger
Posted by Mac in Blogging, Photography on 03.06.2009
Well it’s time to face it, or rather publish it. I’m not going to win any prizes for the most frequently updated blog, always pushing interesting posts on recent events. I suspect mindovermadness.org have slid into the “rarely-updated” category it shares with at least 90 per cent of all other blogs. While I seriously love writing and using words, writing is for me, an all-out process, demanding, taxing and time-consuming. Also, since last November my life has been about two things, 1. The missus, and 2. Photography. In fact the only part of this site that really have been more or less frequently updated is the photo galleries. Read the rest of this entry »
The Philosophy Of A Blogger
Posted by Mac in Blogging, The Internet on 18.11.2008
There are many ways to write a blog, some go the very personal route, telling about their everyday life, others just throw out some quick comments about recent events in politics or media and many specialize in subjects such as traveling, IT, gaming and so forth. What kind of blog you wish to have is of course entirely up to you, within the limits of freedom of speech and the letter of the law. In many cases, you rarely come accross the ethical side of publishing information, because what you publish is not very sensitive or potentially upsetting. Now, when I write the things I do in this blog, I feel I have no other choice than giving this some thought. As the name and the motto of the blog goes – Mind Over Madness.

Looks Can Be Deceiving!
Posted by Mac in Blogging, Technology, The Internet on 21.10.2008
I have not been vey productive in terms of content over the last few days and that is mostly due to the fact that I’ve had my head deep down into .php and .css files. I’ve redesigned my blog into something I, personally, find fairly pleasing and aesthetically decent. It’s sleek, its dark and it’s mine. Read the rest of this entry »
An Ode To WordPress
Posted by Mac in Blogging, Technology, The Internet on 16.10.2008
A few weeks ago I was (as usual) stumbling around the web, and behold, what did I find? The WordPress blogging platform! It looked too good to be true, and at first I simply wanted to test it if it worked. Soon I was awestruck by the abilities and quality of this software and an idea quickly formed in my dozy mind. What about I do something with this domain I’d owned for so many years, mindovermadness.org? ..and I did! I got started with a WordPress-based blog, not because I think I or anything concerning me is that interesting for other people, but because I’m the kind of person that needs projects, things to fiddle with and focus on. The process is more important than the result, sort of. Also, I’ve always liked writing, and since I haven’t been studying for many years, that part of my brain was in danger of shutting completely down. Writing this blog in English also gave me the possibility of reawakening and (hopefully) improving my English, a language I hold very dearly and love, albeit I have no higher education in it. Reading English is all very well, but to really improve one’s knowledge of a language, one need to write it too. Read the rest of this entry »
