The start of my Squared adventure


I've joined Squared* Online to gain the latest knowledge in digital skills and to evolve my creative and technical thinking in digital, so that what I learn I can apply to my marketing career and my own business enterprises.

I’ve decided to use Medium for my blog home during my Squared* adventure. I like how it feels to be in a community of writer-creators. And I like the idea of testing out a fairly new platform. [My caveat is — because I am testing how Medium works for me — I may decide it’s better to migrate to an established platform. Or I may fall in love with Medium. Let’s see what happens.]

So life is busy in my head; many ideas and questions; perhaps this is typical for the inner world of a creative and someone on a path of self-enquiry. Writing a blog will be a way to channel and explore my ideas.

So, my blog home will be …

… a place where:

> I muse on things digital, my experience of Squared*, all that I am learning (which I expect there will be a tonne of) and how I’m applying it to my work/life.

… a place where:

> I write about my own ideas, and happenings in the world, things which intrigue me, inspire me, energise me, excite me, and give me hope, for myself, and the world we live in.

… a place where:

> I write about how digital can bring about positive change in our world.

Let’s enjoy the ride…..
