You know you truely are a geek when:
Your mother starts complaining that you haven’t blogged enough !!
Seriously – mum complained that she went to check my blog to see where I was and what I was doing, but there weren’t any meaningful updates – simply sentimental drivel about old poems.
Well, I do have an excuse (a pretty lame one, but still an excuse!).
Other than being busy with work, I’ve been spending almost every waking hour (and many when I should really have been asleep!) – building a new website.
Finally we launched tonight – after quite a few months of work.
InvestEd :: Teaching Australians to Invest
This is a website aimed at providing education to investors. It’s a community: a discussion forum, a blog (or three) for news updates, a library with articles about investing, a wiki with FAQs and a glossary, a photo gallery, a chatroom, and a heap more.
It’s not free – but charging a modest annual fee allows us to deliver so much more in the way of meaningful content and services than a free site would … and we also get to avoid a lot of banner-ad-itis that many sites suffer from.
We have some pretty big visions for this site – and we think it will do well. Feedback so far has been excellent.
I’ll try and write a bit more about what I’m doing – especially with some of the other stuff going on in our lives right now. But for now, I’ve got some more articles to edit and get online before I get some sleep tonight!
Just been following the replies to your request for a lawyer. Are all of you tarred with the same brush???
The whole concept sounds great. Very proud of your achievements.
lots of love
Congrats on the site launch Sim.. Love the people you’ve brought together (and havent brought together).
Cheers, Duncan.
Good luck with IE!
May your investments compound and your liabilities depreciate.
How do you do it? A full time job, umpteen websites blogs and forums.
Good luck to NInvest!
