Last Fall I was on sabbatical from work, and spent part of the time rebuilding my website. I decided that I wanted to make a blog that focused on art and innovation related to alternative energy, food, and design. I made a commitment to post at least 4-5 things each week.
I am pretty amazed when I look back on all the interesting things that I found, visited, or experienced and wrote about. I also am proud that I have kept up with the commitment to posting on the blog. I have posted every week except for my one week vacation (which was last week), when I did not post, tweet, or share on any social network or website.
The first post on tinySplash bigView was on October 21, 2011 and was “The only thing you can’t buy used is food.” Film Screening: Urban Roots. I had gone to a local screening of the movie, and wrote a synopsis and brief review of this movie which focuses on urban farming in Detroit.
When I look back on the posts on this site – I see that I am increasingly writing about things related to food, community and creativity. There still is an occasional interesting eco-friendly packaging idea or alternative energy design post, but less than a year ago.
Goals for this year – are to go through and organize things better by tags, so it is easy to find things in categories. Also, update some aspects of the site.
Many of you get my weekly/bi-weekly newsletter – which highlights the new posts on the blog. Thanks for reading my posts and for the occasional post and email. I look forward to seeing how the blog evolves by the next birthday.
Happy birthday one year old!
