It’s Monday morning, and I have to be honest, we don’t have anything to post today. So I thought I would update you on Inspiredology.

Redesign

The Inspiredology redesign was delayed, our original deadline was for March. We have our main illustration elements finished, thanks to Mathieu Beaulieu – you will see his incredible work very soon. We are also working with Matt French on our mock-up and design of the new theme. We are brainstorming on how much we want to change, and what we want to keep on the original site.

This time around we are looking to create a blog that has a good sense of it’s brand, and target market. We hope this design is going to stick it through and help build us a great brand.

Guest Writers

Yet again, I bring up the ongoing request for Guest Writers. Inspiredology is always looking for guest writers – as most blogs, content is king, and we want content. We have had about 25 guest writers in the past, and we are always looking for more. In the future we are looking at giving more exposure to guest writers, we can’t provide monetary values, but we want to give as much exposure to our writers as we can. We are proud of our writers, and we are here to help give everybody a chance to get their name out there.

Advertisers

You may have noticed that our advertising spaces have changed quite a bit over the past few months. We have had a few advertisers drop their spots, and we have been filing them with more event-oriented ads. Like most blogs – advertising helps pay the bills (hosting, maintenance, time) so we are looking at new ways to help advertisers get the most value for their placements.

Events & Networking

My biggest goal for this year was to start attending more events and start networking more. Thanks to Andrew for getting us involved in local events like TwestivalTO, WordCampTO, FITC and hopefully NXNE coming up this summer. The events have given us a chance to meet some great people, and meet some of our readers. So if you know of any events, let us know we would love to help promote it and possible attend the event.

Super Secret Projekt

We have been working on our new company website. It’s our design company site which will showcase our design work, and services. Not only that – but it will be home to all our creative projects like Inspiredology. We are working on collaborations with some great designers and bloggers to put out more fun projects. We will be post more information on this in the near future.

What’s next

This week, we will have our final recap of FITC, and in the next coming weeks, be sure to subscribe to our feed and follow us on twitter chadMueller, dertmobile. We will be posting site updates and posting about our super secret projekts coming up.

*Before you comment that we spelled Projekt wrong (there I go I did it again). In the next week or two you will find out why we spelled it that way. Very exciting time right now – can’t wait to unleash our new projekts to you guys.
