State of affairs

My new travel blog!
My new travel blog!

Just a few announcements to make concerning the state of Open-Orbit.com! First, I’m pleased with the new direction I’ve taken with this site. I enjoy writing posts and it’s fun to brainstorm ideas to fill out each category. πŸ™‚

Second, I’ve added a new category called “Resources.” It will contain goodies that I offer for download and/or links to helpful sites and services.

Thirdly, I’ve added a new site to the projects section! It’s called “Michelle in Kobenhaven” and it will serve as the primary blog for my upcoming semester abroad in Copenhagen, Denmark! I hope to post in it several times a week, but that’s only an estimate at this point because I have no idea what my schedule will be like until I’m actually there! While I’m in Denmark, I’ll continue to post entries here, at least once a week, but maybe more. Once again, it depends on my schedule.

In the future I will revamp the Projects section and make it a little more colorful. Also, I’m going to start planning out version 14 of this site. It will be major design overhaul to better reflect Open-Orbit.com’s new mission of exploration, learning and discovery. I’m going to spend many months on the new layout however, so it probably won’t be up until sometime next year! πŸ™‚

  1. I just wanted to say that your travel blog looks really nice…I will be following along. πŸ˜€ I like this site’s new mission, it reminds me of what we had a few years ago when we were all writing articles. Just an idea I had, you had mentioned making a new layout…do you think you’re going to open the site up so that people can register and post articles, like before? I really enjoyed that I would like to do some more writing. But I understand if you can’t, it’s just a thought! I’ve been meaning to start writing in my own blog again anyhow!!

  2. Thanks, Roslyn!!! πŸ˜€ πŸ˜€ Yes, I remember how we had that awesome Mambo/Joomla thing going on in ’04. I’m not sure yet if I want to start it up again, but it’s possible for multiple people to blog on a single WordPress site. Still, I want this site to be more personal and centered on my interests. But I love your idea…and I haven’t forgotten the idea of starting a group blog to replace the forums. It would be a project of this site. What do you think?

    P.S. You really should start blogging again, I miss reading it!!
