Getting Serious

I was at a family gathering this weekend, when someone asked me how the blog was going. I sheepishly admitted I hadn't been able to keep up with as much as I would've liked because of the rigors of journalism school. Another family member mentioned she had recently read there were 24 million blogs wasting away on the internet. 24 MILLION.

I'm determined to get back in the saddle and make I Am Chicago the blog I always imagined it could be.

In the coming months it will...

• move to Wordpress.com


• look like an actual website with hopefully cool design


• have regular features


• incorporate the concept behind my class blog By the Bootstraps

... just to start. Let me know if you have any ideas to add to the site's transformation. I hope to unleash it by October, we shall see.

Hark! I Hear A Tweet

I have found a solution to my "too busy to blog but willing to procrastinate with Twitter" problem: start a Twitter account for I Am Chicago!
