Man, was I screwed up.

Heh. Looking at some of my old entries today. I was going to post a cool link about how to use a can and an old StarChoice dish as a WiFi antenna, but wasn’t sure if I’d posted it before. Luckily, the good folks at Google have indexed all of my pages (yikes!). I couldn’t find any post about a Wifi link, but instead found some interesting reading in my old archives. Man was I ever screwed up back then.

Another interesting observation about posting stuff to the internet is that it tends to stay there for a long time (that is, unless the RIAA finds out about it). So the lesson for today is “don’t post stuff to the internet that you will be embarrassed about later”. Or something to that extent.

About This Site

As a guy who occasionally curates art shows and wrangles artists together, I often have to edit and post artist bios, profile pictures, and artwork images. This can be a problem, since many artists and writers aren’t used to selling themselves. Artists rarely know how to present their art for display in a brochure, and writers aren’t used to writing about themselves.

Writers often treat the bio like it’s an interview or something. Maybe like they’re having a conversation with you, the reader. While it may work sometimes, the most common way to write a bio is to write in the 3rd person.

I’m like those writers, and I’m talking to you directly, unlike the common way to do a bio. You should see my About page. It makes sense to me, since this is a bit which describes my blog’s website. When I get famous enough that I don’t have time to talk to you, I’ll have an intern write everything in 3rd person. Until then, you get to talk to me.

Like blogs of old, this one is a personal document of the comings and goings of me. Articles I’ve written, links I’ve posted, videos I liked, etc. Here, a first-person perspective is the way to go, at least for now. So, this is my site. I’m D. H. McKee, a sometimes artist, sometimes writer. Mostly just a guy on the internet.
