New Homepage - Tumblr


As Sir Winston Churchill already pointed out, "There is nothing wrong with change, as long as it's in the right direction". Taking these words into account, I once again overhauled the channels through which I connect to you and the internet.

New Homepage
The previous (and first) version of my homepage mainly functioned as a gateway to all the places where I was already present on the web. However, it had always been my intention to provide the visitor with a basic amount of information about myself right there. This has been implemented in the new design, which also features an extra link to a new channel: Tumblr.

Tumblr
As I mentioned before in one of the posts on this blog, the hassle of creating new posts and providing them with enough content often prevented the sharing of short ideas or interesting articles which needed little or no further explanation. It seemed rather cumbersome to write a post only to share a thought-provoking news article or inspiring video. Therefore, I have turned to Tumblr, which is a microblogging service which allows easy and short updates without the need for a lot of accompanying words. As I often stumble upon interesting things, this provides the perfect opportunity to "share on the go", resulting in a higher update ratio but with fewer own content. 

Blog
This creation of own content, being articles such as "The Benefits of a Hype", will still appear here as they are often longer and better suited for a full-grown blog, rather than a microblog which is not perfect for sharing large amounts of texts.

So that's about it. If you want frequent updates, I suggest you visit my Tumblr and Twitter pages. If you're looking for original content, stick around here. In all cases, check out my new homepage.

See you next time!
