Still here
Being mid way through my research, it's only getting more intense. I'm also hoping to get another couple of articles together by the end of the year....and amid all this, my experiments continue to get more in depth. Things are looking good though.
I've made a few additions to the website...I'm now using Google AdSense, and also Google AdWords. Publicity is definitely something new to me, and I'm learning as I go along. It's a pretty vicious business, and proper PR people must have a hell of a job......however, having said that, it would be a lot easier to get attention and come up with fresh ways of getting the public's attention with a lot of money to put towards it......I was thinking about The Blair Witch Project yesterday, and think about how it was all initial PR work that gave the film so much hype....and that was possible because of a lot of movie money.
Anyway....this thing's still going...and although it was a little slow last week, the site has still only been online for about 6 weeks, so I'm not expecting any miracles to happen in this time. ¶ 8:14 PM
I haven't written for a few days now. The stories have slowed down a bit after a nice period of progression last week, but my other work (my PhD) has been keeping me nice and busy. I'm currently trying to get together an amended version of my literature review, to submit as a journal article. Hopefully I can get this together by the end of the month.
