Why do I think a freelancer should blog?
If you’re true and true right to your heart, your passion writes for you. If you’re pure and pure of mind, your posts point towards righteousness. If you’re open and open of heart and mind, you’ll understand that freelancing isn’t only about freedom, it’s about the confidence you have in yourself and not fearing acknowledging that you’re forever learning. You are professional, you are humble, you are a person who thinks the world is neither round or square because your posts will reflect the person with a passion to absorb his/her surrounding.

And it’s time to let the cat out of the bag for readers who are here now. My next website revamp is going to be pretty big. (to me..) It’s going to be a portfolio with a blog that I’ll try to cover every aspect of the web design industry. It’s content would be broken into various categories such as web design & usability, technology, marketing, managing and employment. All this will be finalized upon the final launch later, which I aim to be by 2006.

So my friends, this website will no longer be a space of rants and rambling. It would be a place of knowledge that I hope to share with everyone as I age and experience through my career as a freelancer. I want to share the tears, the joy and the truth of this business.

Oh, don’t worry. I’m still going to have a place for my rants and ramblings. Just that it’ll be in a more subtle method with some visual stimulant.

I hope everyone will stick around with me till then. Cheers.
