More Projects
I like learning new skills and starting projects. I regularly undertake such things with varying results. However, if they don’t work out that’s not a problem. You have to try something to see if you like it. I’ll add “within sensible parameters” as a caveat to the last statement. And it’s perfectly fine to discover that something isn’t for you. I like certain genres of video games, music, films and books. I am comfortable wearing certain types of clothes and not others. I’m picky about colours. I’ll even go so far as to say that I won’t drink out of any mug that’s just lying around. If I don’t like the joke, logo or overall aesthetic of it, I ain’t using it. However, I digress. Let’s get things back on track and talk about projects. This year I have wound down several websites and have decided not to move forward with making YouTube videos. I have focused my energy on improving my website and adding functionality. I am also trying to broaden the scope of my writing.
Projects
Roundabout this time last year, I started a couple of new website projects. The idea was to do something different to Contains Moderate Peril and write about other subjects. One was about UK politics and the other was about a Panda watching films and TV and making wry comments. I like to cast a wide net. I also wanted to take the opportunity to develop some new skills. It was certainly interesting creating two websites from scratch, using such diverse tools as Wix and Blot. The former provides the means to construct a very modern website with all the latest features. The latter is quite the opposite, providing a lean and minimalist service. Twelve months later, both projects have proven very useful and I have a better understanding of what is required to maintain an online presence in 2024. As they have now served their purpose, both sites are now offline.
