Personal Site Number 3: Is It Really Necessary?
I think so. I’ve decided that I really like to segment my online life.
This started a couple years ago when I ran a website where I frequently expressed my political views and through another site of mine, a movie review site, someone at my company realized I had a lot going on online.
Now I was able to move and hide things quickly enough that there was no issue, and in reality there wouldn’t have been an issue, but it made me realize that there were certain people that I didn’t want to be able to connect me with my sites and thats how it all began.
It’s not an issue anymore. I only run 3 sites right now and none of them would I consider inflammatory in any way like politics.
They would be this site, which will become my personal/freelance gateway to the web.
Elton Chords, which is a resource for piano players that contains almost EVERY single Elton John song with the respective chords. A great reference for piano players.
And Motion Defined, which is my movie review site.
They vary in traffic with Elton Chords being in the hundreds per day and Motion Defined being in the single digits per day. Elton Chords is falling in traffic now with a lack of updates, but when new albums arrive, the traffic jumps back up. And Motion Defined is always slow, except during SXSW, when the early movie premiere review can bump me to dozens of hits per day.
Here are my elton stats which I always share with the readers of the site if anyone is interested - http://www.eltonchords.com/mint/.
Anyway, I hope someone can find something interesting here or on my other sites, and I hope to be able to communicate for a long time to come.
