A lot of time has passed since i focused on blogging. I’ve been mostly tweeted out my tech thoughts and sharing (or over sharing) what i thought was interesting. I kept thinking of a way to revolutionize the way blogs are done. There is a lot of effort that goes into a post. I personally do not have that much time to compose and gather all my thought at once. I’d love to write short blurbs and patch them all together over time. I guess that is why i am not a writer/journalist. As much as i would love it.
A new idea of publishing content came to me on a late night of browsing the internet and waving on Google Wave. A close friend of mine and myself wave back and forth to keep in touch. We mostly talk about technology and web trends. I quickly realized that our heated debates and sometimes agreements on matters might make for a good editorial. I was always a fan of conversations and i guess that’s why i love twitter and Facebook so much. The ultimate thing that opened my eyes to the entertainment aspect of blog posts based around a discussion was a piece by Engadget on the Nokia N97. I was blown away by the sheer creativity of doing a blog post mimicking “mail correspondence”. If you have not read the piece i suggest you have a look and i guarantee you will be in tears laughing by the end of the review.
From all this we derive my next creation: “2Guys1Wave”! 2Guys1Wave will be a blog maintained between my friend Raj Paramerswaran and myself. We will be creating blog posts consisting of a Waves in which we discuss a certain topic. Each blog post will hopefully evolve over time into what we hope will be a semi-professional blog post. We plan on discussing such topics as:
- technology
- gadgets
- web services and applications
- events
- cars
- anything else that might interest us at the time
The posts will be on a weekly to bi-weekly basis as all changes we will do will be reflected throughout the week. We won’t be discussing anything we haven’t had experience with as I’d like there to some credibility to what we do. The only time we will do that will be when discuss product rumors and predictions. I will be posting the first few posts on here till we get WordPress setup just the way we want it for the blog. I’ll announce the launch as soon as it’s ready.
Check back in a couple of day when i will be posting our first 2Guys1Wave post on the Apple iSlate rumors. Just in time for the January 27th announcement!
