Brewed Fresh Daily

Hello Ryzers! Just joined this community this morning and am already excited about updating content. This is something relatively new to me- the thirst for updating content. I've tried three times to start a blog, but a little intimidated by the collaborative nature of them, I've never had much luck. Then, I found something to write about. my music. So, the web becomes something to get people writing again. I've met a few of the "underground digerati", pioneers in online underground publishing. It makes me realize The Web Is Underground Publishing. With so much to choose from, finding new sites, new sources, new news... its an amazing experience! Incidentally, just got out of a meeting with some local people interested in developing media for the Northeast Ohio region- and while I won't go into the gory details, I can say I learned the following valueable lessons: 1. Choice is good. The more options, the more connections, the closer we get to providing new perspectives- the deeper the culture becomes. We tend to think about culture in terms of art, entertainment, tradition while we generate culture every day. Getting that culture to people, getting people to gather around it... what offers more choice than the net? 2. The web is all about links. Blatantly obvious to most people, forest for the trees situation for me. Link to others, have them link to you, you will grow. Thus Ryze. 3. Stop thinking and tell your story. I am a serious person much of the time- way too serious. Intensity is my curse. If I can just produce without being concerned about the details, what's next?
