Guess who’s back…

The blog has been updated, plugins added, code changed, and the domain whipped back into shape to begin a new phase in KolbyK Graymatter.

I’m back in Springfield with a new career and a new life – both absolutely amazing.  With that in mind, I am working on re-obtaining some of the enjoyable and personally enhancing habits (such as blogging) that I once enjoyed.

Blogging in its self provides a method for one to not only share ideas and information, but also to collaborate in the open environment of the internet. With my new endeavors in programming, life optimization, and personal development, I hope I can offer some topics and post that bring about discussion and input.

As always,  this will serve as my repository of thoughts, opinions, and creativity. Also, as always, these are my viewpoints and my viewpoints alone – not that of any employer or client I currently have, have had, or will have.

I hope you’ll join me on this journey.

Welcome to my Graymatter

Gray matter or grey matter is a type of neural tissue which is found in the brain and spinal cord. It is named after its distinctive brownish-gray color, in contrast with white matter, another type of neural tissue which appears white because it is coated in myelin sheathes. Many people associate gray matter with intelligence and intellect, because it is a major component in the brain, leading to slang terms like “use those gray cells.”

Back to the world of blogging I go:

I’ve decided it’s time to experiment with the trials of blogging once again.  I’ve had a few blogs in the past, most of which have been focused around the randomness and encounters of my daily life.  While Graymatter is sure to contain this component as well, I hope to expand the realm and scope of the topics I cover.

I plan on bringing together my personal insights, opinion, and overall views of life along with a general focus towards technology and social media.  These are the topics which interest me and they are the topics that I believe will be discussed most prevalently across Graymatter.

Graymatter will also be a public file cabinet or sorts for myself.  By this I mean that I will be posting a variety of links, images, media, and other content  I find across the interwebs that I deem interesting enough I would like to share with other good people.  I will be experimenting with Posterous as the publishing backend for this content.  With that in mind, I am sure some adjusting of the quantity and type of content that is posted to Graymatter will be needed.

Lastly, the key to Graymatter is that this is in essence an experiment for myself.  I have given way to maintaining a blog in recent years greatly in part to the rise of social media platforms that allow for such a greater degree of collaboration and instant sharing. However, I have not found the same level of content creation power to be available through these social media outlets.

While technologies such as Twitter are very  useful and add a degree of required thought processing due to the 140 character limit, many times it is hard to share your complete thoughts within that limit. With this in mind, please join me for this experiment.  If you have comments, please leave them.

Let the journey begin.
