More something or other in 2010

Counting this post, I blogged 11 times this year. I couldn't even manage a measly post a month. It wasn't for lack of things going on. I mostly hated the format of my blog and my whole media workflow. Photos on Flickr (and now Brizzly), status and jokes on Twitter (synced to Facebook), videos on YouTube, everything on Friendfeed, Reader and Tumblr. It's a mess. It's a mess I hope to sort out in 2010 but it's neither here nor there. I did give shellen.com a little makeover so maybe I'll stop hating it so much. A big help along the way, I'm using Typekit to give it a fresh new feel. Instead of an empty promise to blog more in 2010 maybe I should just plan to sort out this mess for you, me and everyone. Happy New Year and happy new media!

My 11-year old self would die

Last week I had a little misunderstanding with Justine Bateman. Today, Alyssa Milano gave out invites to Brizzly to her followers on Twitter. Life is getting more surreal by the day. I'm angling for some sort of slap fight with Nicole Eggert next week.

Brizzly: Coming soon from Thing Labs

A few hours ago I gave a preview of the web app that we have been working on at Thing Labs. It's called Brizzly and it's a fun, new way to use Twitter. Brizzly lets you do all the things you love on Twitter plus a bit more. We are still working on it and most notably the user interface isn't final, but Techcrunch wrote up a little piece about Brizzly and *cringe* has a video of my demo (which I haven't watched). The team at Thing Labs has been working really hard to get it ready for use, but the conference came up a little before we were ready to release to the world. Never fear, go to Brizzly.com and enter your info if you would like an invite and we'll send you one when we are ready. Also, how cute is the bear wearing a bird suit (if I don't say so myself)?
