doingfine is now interllectual.
I decided that the reason I haven’t been writing was twofold:
- movabletype was too clunky and frustrating, and
- I needed a site name I could really get behind.
doingfine always seemed like a cheesy name to me, and the original premise, although important, just wasn’t inspiring.
Interllectual is a much better name for these reasons:
- it exemplifies my cutting wit
- it gives a nod to my job, which is managing the internet (OK really the web, but webllectual wasn’t as funny) for an intellectual institution
- it makes fun of all the academic wonks and self-proclaimed intellectuals I work with everyday (I include myself in this group, but I’m smarter that all them other guys…)
- it embraces my biggest pet-peeve, which is spelling things wrong on purpose, especially for marketing (qwick, lite, nite, etc…)
- it has many other meanings if you really think about it
Hopefully it will spark me on toward posting more often.
If nothing else, I get to redesign again. Expect this bare-bones install to start looking groovy in the next couple of weeks.
