For me, it seems that the hardest time to be creative is when there is a completely blank canvas. The possibilities are endless, thus the places to start are infinite as well. So to create, and more importantly to keep, forward momentum I decided to come up with photography themes on a regular basis to narrow the focus and reduce the number of starting barriers. It turned out that a few other people were interested in that idea too. http://www.codecreative.com/notebook/2008/03/tweet-tweet/ Sat, 08 Mar 2008 13:03:00 GMT http://www.codecreative.com/notebook/2008/03/tweet-tweet/ Well, I avoided it for over a year, but finally gave into the weirdness that is Twitter. I stayed away for all the obvious reasons, like… "who cares what you're eating right now" or maybe I didn't want to have documentation of the exact degree of boringness to which I lead my life. http://www.codecreative.com/notebook/2008/01/the-commons/ Thu, 17 Jan 2008 12:00:00 GMT http://www.codecreative.com/notebook/2008/01/the-commons/ Flickr and the Library of Congress have teamed up to introduce an archive of old photographs called The Commons. According to the announcement "The key goals of this pilot project are to firstly give you a taste of the hidden treasures in the huge Library of Congress collection, and secondly to how your input of a tag or two can make the collection even richer." Flickr members are invited to tag photos and leave comments. http://www.codecreative.com/notebook/2008/01/london-at-night/ Tue, 08 Jan 2008 23:00:00 GMT http://www.codecreative.com/notebook/2008/01/london-at-night/ A new year's resolution I have for 2008 is to become a better photographer—or at least do more of it. Flickr to the rescue. The site inspires, but also involves. While you're off Facebooking and MySpacing each other, I'd rather be Flickr'ing. http://www.codecreative.com/notebook/2007/09/ready-set-go/ Sat, 01 Sep 2007 12:27:00 GMT http://www.codecreative.com/notebook/2007/09/ready-set-go/ One month finishing up Boston life, four months world travel and one month getting set up in London. What can I say? The last six months have been the most extraordinary I've ever been a part of. http://www.codecreative.com/notebook/2007/02/a-new-beginning/ Sun, 25 Feb 2007 06:35:09 GMT http://www.codecreative.com/notebook/2007/02/a-new-beginning/ Resignation. On February 8, 2007, I handed in my official resignation. Or did I tender my resignation? I'm still not quite sure how I want to refer to it yet. The point is that in about five weeks, I will be unemployed and homeless—I couldn't be happier! http://www.codecreative.com/notebook/2007/02/2007-sxswi/ Fri, 09 Feb 2007 04:37:00 GMT http://www.codecreative.com/notebook/2007/02/2007-sxswi/ As this year's South By Southwest Interactive festival approaches, I find myself reflecting on the lessons learned from last year and sit in anticipation of what is to come. Truth be told, I got much more out of this than I contributed. There is just so much to absorb that it's difficult not to. http://www.codecreative.com/notebook/2007/01/relaunch/ Tue, 30 Jan 2007 05:01:01 GMT http://www.codecreative.com/notebook/2007/01/relaunch/ codecreative.com is the online evolution of Byron Manley. A constant work in progress—both the site and the author. Once again, this site's primary purpose will be to serve as a portfolio. However, I relaunch with the greater notion of documentation and experimentation. I hope to share the experiences that I go through as a web developer in the hopes that I can contribute to a community that I have learned so much from. http://www.codecreative.com/notebook/2006/09/ridiculous-day/ Thu, 14 Sep 2006 05:32:00 GMT http://www.codecreative.com/notebook/2006/09/ridiculous-day/ Today is Ridiculous Day. Happy Birthday, Shawn.
