This page is step three in my plan for world domination. Here’s a timeline to catch you guys up:
- c2001-2005: I got bit by the web-logging bug. I used Xanga and some other shitty website that spammed all my followers. I would rattle off semi-interesting things that happened in my late-high school and early-college life. I made a list of “funny” quotes and inside jokes for my friends. I updated sporadically and would go through phases of neglecting to post if at all. I grew up, figured out no one gave a shit, and moved on.
- 2006: I finally bought a digital SLR after wanting to try photography through high school. Thanks, Motorola!
- 2007: I started blogging about music I like, with a witty anecdote here or there, but that never really caught on. I began shooting more often and honing some semblance of skill. I registered deanosaur.com to pave the future of the internets.
- 2008: I started working for the Daily Illini, and I began blogging about all my photo escapades. I began using twitter to post random links and blurbs about the mundane stuff going on around me instead of drolling on in a “real” blog for paragraphs at a time.
- 2009: I bought my own webspace! Yay!
…
- 2012: The mayans were right, except after the world ends we all are reincarnated as autobots and decepticons on planet cybertron.
I plan on increasing my photo sizes thanks to the flexibility that being able to edit templates gives me. I’ll probably go with 800×533. That’s 23% larger than before! :)
Anyway, thanks for looking, reading, and continuing to visit. I’ll try to pretty-up the place real soon.
Warmest regards,
Dean
