Where are you working now?

Zhaki wrote a post about the trouble with resumes and jobs. I can relate to it SO much. Especially after I quit my previous job and became freelance(read:unemployed).

So the title of this post refers to the question I get asked all the time by old friends and acquaintances. My answer to that is that I’m freelancing although in reality I don’t actually have any jobs/projects where I get paid. I tried once when Zhaki asked me to help create a website. That bombed and I feel kinda bad about it and Zhaki probably secretly hates me for it but I just couldn’t do it.

I have been procrastinating a lot too. For about a year now. But things are picking up in the sense that I’m getting kinda motivated to work on stuff. This blog for instance is the starting point. It’s been revitalized and I’m quite happy with how it’s turned out (although it wasn’t that difficult to do anyway). I think I’m just about done touching up this blog so I’m moving on to the UsDudes site. I’m trying to think of it like a job and dedicate 8 hours a day to revitalize it. A secret dream I have is that the website will start adding more new original content and appear on the Singapore blogging radar and take off slowly from there. Hopefully, our brand of humour will reach the masses and we can actually start making money off the site. One can dream, can’t they?

About the title/logotype. I really have no idea when it comes to that so maybe we should come up with a fixed font for UsDudes.com to make it a text logo. Any ideas?
