Random thoughts and inspirations by Damian Rintelmann

Taking it all in…

This blog has sat with very few updates over the past few months. There are good reasons and bad ones for this. I’m going to let all of you in on an inner monologue that I’ve had about this site for awhile. If you follow me on Twitter and Tumblr you probably know that I am not always this silent. This site just hasn’t gotten much attention from me because it takes a bit too much time to keep up.

Over the past few months work has been crazy (in a good way). We’ve been getting lots of fun projects and great opportunities. The downside of all those fun projects is that my sites suffer. What I’ve found is that this lack of time has actually made me appreciate Tumblr even more. It is the one site that I visit the most. It offers me the chance to quickly escape my busy day to get a quick creative recharge. It also allows for me to quickly post photos, videos from whatever device or via email. Better yet I can just reblog what I find as cool.

What I’ve discovered about myself lately is that writing long posts is becoming more and more challenging. However short bursts of creativity and capturing quick thoughts is more my speed right now. The problem is that I still love nights like this one, where I step back from it all and analyze what is going on around me.

Here is the deal:
1. I am going to challenge myself to keep up with this blog more often.
2. Tumblr is still going to be my muse(in an inanimate way).
3. You might see the format of this blog change again

Here are my recommendations for you. Blogging isn’t just about creating great content for others. Sometimes it is just for you. It is a place for you to capture your thoughts, inspirations or whatever else comes to you. Don’t get caught up in always trying to post for others. If you are finding ways to keep yourself entertained there are bound to be other people that like it too.

I also recommend that you give Tumblr or Posterous a try. Both have a ton of great content. I’ve found that Tumblr has a great community, and suites my needs. I’d love to hear what you think about all this.
