I think everybody wants one at some point. A chance to refresh and rejuvenate. A chance to build on what you learned the last time around. Well. this is mine.
This space first served as a personal playground. It was an ongoing experiment from which I learned a lot about the art and science of making websites. As I began to take projects as a freelance web designer, BlakeWatson.com became a space to showcase my work and sell my services. I never really intended to build something big around BlakeWatson.com. After all, it was first a fun personal website, not some cool brand. So it’s time to take that responsibility off of the shoulders of BlakeWatson.com and hand it off to a younger, more ambitious generation.
What is coming is a culmination of everything that I have learned since I began working on the Web seven years ago. It will be fused with my personality and aspirations. This time around, there is a purpose. There is a goal.
Over the next few months, I will be finishing up some current projects while working on this new brand under which I will offer my creative services. I will provide updates on this space. I can’t give too much away at the moment, but some exciting developments are underway. More on those in the coming weeks.
For now, I’ll give you some insight into my plans for this new creation. I want to do much more than showcase my work and sell my services. One of my biggest new goals this time around is to educate. I want to help people better understand what websites are and how they can be useful. I want to help people understand what goes into making a good website. After all, it’s a lot more than pretty pictures on a page. If people understand what it is that I do, then I think they will understand the value of what I do. And that in turn will produce better websites for people and organizations who might have otherwise settled for less.
So now you know about my little secret. Check back to see how things are going. I will continue to update this space with news about my progress.
Hello Blake if you are the one reading my email. I was asked to give a presentation this August in Salt Lake City for IRS/DEAF. I look into Website ( What can you do ?) and Meet Sue. I was so impress with the art work and people from different walks of life. I was able to get one DVD on Meet Sue with different people sharing their experience, however, I was not able to get the DVD with the closed caption and music only. I was hoping I can get DVD with the typing and music. I am also hoping to put these two different DVD into my powerpoint and use those two DVD’s as part of my opening presentation on how to be a mentor. I hope to hear from you. Keep up the remarkable extraordinary trade. You captured my heart & mind.
Cordially,
Christopher A. Stieglitz
