Drafts

Yes, I know you’re all complaining about how I haven’t updated the blog in over a week. And I apologize, but to tell you the truth, I’ve got about seven half-written posts done and I just need to find some time to finish each one and tighten them all up. With work being super crazy right now, I haven’t had the chance to do that, but hopefully I’ll find some time over the weekend.

In the meantime, here’s a look at some of the posts I’m working on that are sitting in my ‘drafts’ folder. Not all of them will make it as published posts, but I guess this might be a good way to look at a few of the things I’m working on and some of the thoughts running through my head.

• Toronto Votes: a look at the election that’s coming up this Monday and what everyday Toronto residents need to know about picking who runs this town.
• Coworking: a quick take on the phenomenon of coworking and the merits that it presents for people in the creative sector.
• Art on the Street: a short showcase on street art as an expression of culture, and the street art scene in Toronto.
• How to be Interesting: a brief response to Russell Davies’ post on how to be interesting, and things that I do regularly that coincides with his thinking.
• Yam Roll: a little tribute to one of the funniest animated television program in Canada, and a salute to its creators.
• Creating User Interfaces: a post on the process that I’ve been following on creating interfaces that encourage interaction and provide a fruitful and simple user experience.
• Alex Chung, Stuntman: there’s a guy in Toronto that has some fantastic videos on YouTube of him doing some great stunts, so I’m working on getting an interview with him.
• UsabilityCamp: a brief breakdown on the things I learned at UsabilityCamp, a conference that I’m attending next Tuesday.

There’s a few more that are in the works, but those are all the posts that I’ve started and are sitting in my drafts. And for those of you who are wondering what’s going on with eloquation.com, I promise that once my work schedule gets a bit lighter (one day, I hope), I’m going to devote tons of time to getting that all set up. I promise it’ll be good.

Aright, back to work I go, hopefully I can get some of those posts up soon!
