  • Ottawa Comiccon 2012

    Looking for my Flickr photos from the event? I really enjoyed myself at the first (potentially annual) Ottawa Comiccon. There were some small issues, which I would like to address first, and then I’ll get to the good stuff. The Bad Lots of people are letting the organizers off the hook because it is the… Read more

  • Scream All You Want

    So, Tom and his friends are putting together a web video horror series called Scream All You Want. Originally they were going to do a two camera set-up and I offered up my camera to use as the secondary camera because it has the same sensor as their primary one. Then they decided the logistics… Read more

  • Moved In

    So I’m all moved into my new place. The move itself went well (thanks Barry Sr. and Jr.) and I was able to get all my stuff from the old room to the new apartment without too much of an issue or hassle. The biggest change in my life is how busy I am. My… Read more

  • Weird Dream

    So last night, I fell asleep listening to a documentary and had a really strange dream. I was transported back in time and was staying with a wealthy family. I mistakenly thought it was like the 1700’s or something but it was closer to the 1450’s. The people I was living with pretty much thought… Read more

  • Moving Around

    Since graduating college in 2003, I have moved more than a few times. First, upon graduating, I moved from Kingston to London, Ontario where I worked in a call centre. This was, by far, the worst job I ever had. Next, I moved to Ottawa and stayed with my mom while I started working for… Read more

  • Powerhouse Brands Online

    A long time ago, I used to work for some blog networks, and in doing so, I realized the power of bringing many content producers under a single brand. Over the last year, I’ve been hearing how the blog network is dead, or how blog networks never worked and I feel compelled to comment on… Read more

  • One Job Ends, Another Begins

    So, I recently got a letter from Danielle, my manager, letting me know that the company has to downsize, and that I was being laid off. My last day is the middle of April, and while they’ve long promised me contract work after that point, no one ever said if it would be full time,… Read more
