As I hinted about in an earlier post, I am slowly working to bring all of my online presences into one moniker.
For years I did everything under MJFDesigns. While I still own and operate MJF Designs, it is more of a hobby and no longer fully depicts who I am online.
This blog [Jobysblog.com] started out to be a place for me to come to post my feelings about whatever I wanted. Never really caring if anyone were to read it. But over the past few months I have been thinking about what I want to be when I grow up and will soon be steering this blog toward my new personal brand.
What brand? The brand is BaldFatGuy. Here is why:
Joby’s Blog has always touted the tag line ‘Blog of a Bald Fat Guy.’ I picked up the nickname when working with the youth of my church. I remember sitting in class talking with them one Sunday morning when I began to feel that they were not really paying much attention. I recall saying something like ‘Hey The Bald Fat Guy did not write this stuff God did…’ or something like that… They chuckled a little and from then on, I started referring to myself as BfG on Xanga etc (yeah I had one). Soon it became my handle on every new site I signed up for…
Y0u can find me using BaldFatGuy or in some cases (theBaldFatGuy) in many places:
- Twitter
- Foursquare
- Gowalla
- Instagr.am
- Flickr
- Beerby
- I am sure there is more…
The name and domain here will stay the same, the older posts will be here as well, but focus will shift slightly.
You can expect a new layout for Joby’s Blog. No doubt I will be saying good-bye to some of the right hand column items, and hello to new ones as well.
So for now, please pardon the dust and occasional wonkiness you will encounter as I change, re-change, and change things around here over the next short while.
More to come…
