You can’t beat being social.

God, social media it becoming more and more popular each day.

It’s an unavoidable fact. You can use a social networking presence for jobs, friends, and more. That social presence can establish friendships in some pretty neat places, opening up job opportunities and allow you to build your resume even more (you know, that thing people think isn’t important until you get denied a job because of it). Networking efficiently (there are books about it) is key. I just ask one thing of you: talk to Twitter or Tumblr like you would talk to your mother.

Cursing of Facebook? Racist on Twitter? You know, if a job or a college saw that, what would they think?

Speaking of social, you can follow me @talkingwithsean or at my new Tumblr, http://findingme.sean-fisher.com/. Good luck!

Making Websites or the Pool

The summer is already going quite quickly, and it’s onlyRecently, I have had the pleasure (and time) to improve some websites very dear to me. The International Insider and CSI High School websites have been in dire need of a redesign for quite some time. I hope that I can recieve some positive feedback on these redesigns as well as see these websites develop into a community in some sense. Now I really see how hard it is to obtain a visitor’s attention!

The homepage for The Insider

Just a random post that you can see

Oh and did I mention that both websites are powered by the wonderful, open-source WordPress? WordPress 3.0 has some amazing features!
