Antique Websites

I spent some time in the preliminary stages of updating my website at mustseeradio.com for the first time in about three years today.

This, of course, begs the question of why haven't I updated it in such a long time?

I even brag on my resume that I was a national finalist for an award a few years back for my work on the old KRTU website. It just seems even more pathetic how sad my various websites are. Even krtu.org has since been redesigned by someone else.

A few years ago, I had ambitions of possibly starting my own business doing things like web design, graphic design, audio production, voice-overs, and the like. I went through the first steps of setting up my computer and some websites.

Then my computer started crashing.

It took me a couple of years to get things up and running again. Of course, during this same time period, I was working ridiculous overnight hours as a DJ, and I was losing touch with the normal schedules of humanity.

It can be quite amazing the effect on your life of being constantly sleepy.

Once I moved to East Texas a couple of years ago, I thought I would get things going as they should have been. Then I had more computer problems. Then I ran into the problem of working in an office with no decent computers. Then I had to get up at 4:45 every morning and became constantly sleepy again.

I'm still trying to sort through all of this myself.

I basically gave up on it for several years. Now I think I need to fix some things.

Stay tuned. I hope to completely redesign my embarassing websites in the near future.
