Hello everyone who visits my blog to read more on getting a job if you’re about to graduate, have recently graduated or are several years out of college with an English degree. I know it won’t mean much right now, but please accept my apologies for the lack of posting over the past year, and bear with me as I gear up for some new posts in the very near future.
So much has happened in the world of online publishing, even just in the past 10 to 12 months, with the explosion in social media like Facebook, Twitter and location-based social networks like Foursquare and Gowalla, that I feel like there’s so much more to write about now, and so much of what I’ve already written needs to be updated!
The irony of this, of course, is that — as everyone knows — we’ve been experiencing certainly the worst economic downtown of our lives over the past 18 months. But in the world of publishing, electronic media and technology, there has been this explosive flowering of new ideas, tools, technologies and services, all of which (I hope!) will present new opportunities for people with the kinds of skills English majors have in spades.
With that said, let me sign off this quick post to let you know that I’ll be writing more soon, and please feel free to share with me your thoughts either in the comments here or via email.
