a typical first post

Filed under: Jon's Stuff, Whatever — Jon @ 10:17 pm

Hi there, I told my loyal followers and various clients that JC TECH SERVICES would have a blog up and that I would update the world on our recent trip to Indonesia.  I couldn't put a post like that up yet, without a "First Post". A "First Post" is an important thing.  It's like the first two weeks of marriage… whatever you do there, sets the standard for everything else that follows.  For instance, if you wanted to impress your new wife with how domesticated and 21st century you are and do all the dishes and and a good portion of the other duties around the house, she may be impressed, but she is also defining what the next 20 years will look like.  A few years down the road, you may wonder why you are still doing a good portion of the dishes. So I need to come up with a first post… something that is easy to read, and in plain English, 'cause that kind of defines our company.  It also has to be fun to read, but not cheesy.  Somewhere in there, I need to warn my readers that I will not be posting each and every day, because I have more important things to do like keeping your websites secure, updated and graphically stunning.  I may not even post weekly, but I don't want to leave the reader thinking that I will never post and not bother even coming back, because that would defeat the purpose of having a blog, which is to slowly and methodically draw the reader into a quasi, cyber relationship that will ultimately lead to referrals and repeat business.  It's an intricate balance. I also need to include a description of what the content will contain.  You see, it will probably have information and thoughts on starting running and improving a business, technical information and discussions about different things that effect the way you or I might use the Internet, and it may contain the occasional personal thought or musing.  I can't make it sound too formal or people won't read it in their "down" time, but I can't make it seem too informal, bacause then people won't take it or us seriously.  Another balance to maintain. Obviously writing a first post like that would be close to impossible, and setting a wrong first impression is not worth it (as pointed out earlier), so I am just going to say…

Hi, and welcome to our blog from your friends at JC TECH SERVICES

    Want to start your private office arms race right now?

    I just got my own USB rocket launcher :-) Awsome thing.

    Plug into your computer and you got a remote controlled office missile launcher with 360 degrees horizontal and 45 degree vertival rotation with a range of more than 6 meters - which gives you a coverage of 113 square meters round your workplace.
    You can get the gadget here: http://tinyurl.com/2qul3c

    Check out the video they have on the page.
