the time that i further increased my nerd factor

now i’m the first to admit that i’m a huge nerd. giant techie. can’t get enough. i mean i’m one of the people who will be going on their third iPhone this summer when the next version will likely come out (yay for iPhone OS 3.0 preview next week!). one thing, however, that i’ve been adopting at a slower than usual pace is twitter. i checked it out quite a while ago although didn’t sign up for an account until last summer. i have been slow to start following people because i initially felt it would just be too overwhelming. i am happy to announce that i’m quickly ramping up the process and am nearing a total of 50 for my following list. granted, that number doesn’t seem large but i have to learn to manage more in incremental steps. i’m slowly developing the skills to keep up with it throughout the day and i think i’ve mastered those skills to the point where i feel comfortable going crazy now. i suppose it’s like google reader, it took my a while but now i’m able to have more than 100 RSS feeds aggregating and not feel lost in the sea of unread posts.

at work i’ve begun working on a digital 101 presentation that i’m beyond excited about. finally getting to spend time working on presentations that center around my passion. not that media planning in general isn’t a passion, because it most certainly is. i love my career in general, but getting to go in and specialize in digital and emerging technology just makes it that much more amazing. it’s my goal to make this a top-notch presentation so that i can wow people within the agency who might not have had the chance to work with me yet (especially after I sullied my name after the whole NYT quote debacle of 2008).

okay time to try sleeping again.
