Killing my MySpace
Hello Friends,
After years of having a MySpace account, I have chosen to kill mine. This decision comes out of many reasons, primarily of which, well, MySpace just sucks. For a long time I felt as though MySpace would somehow help me to market myself and stay connected with more people better, but the fact of the matter is that it just doesn’t.
MySpace stands behind poor planing, bad design, and bad development. Those are attributes which I no longer choose to endorse.
So, in the matter of 24 hours, I will be closing my MySpace account and will bring it to its death.
In fact, I am making a call for action, and I encourage you to do the same. For those of you who decide to close your MySpace account along with me, I will dedicate my time to you for answering any sort of questions you may have on getting set up on a Facebook account or Facebook group, page, etc. as well as Twitter. These tools I have found to be far more valuable in marketing and making worthy connections.
Sincerely,
Bingle (Killing MySpace since 2009)
Phoenix Says We’re on Top!
Phoenix Magazine recently named Keane Creative as one of the top places to work in the valley! I’m a proud employee to say the least. Read their article online:

New Job, New Hamster
In case you haven’t heard already, several things have changed in my life recently. First of all- I accepted a job with Keane Creative as an Account Executive. Today marks the end to my second week with them, and so far so good! Everyone I work with is incredibly smart, passionate, and full of energy. I am glad to call myself the newest addition.
With that, Thursday night of this week also marked my last day as a Rock Band Chick with Gamers Combat Zone. I’ll miss them dearly, but it’s time to become more focused and I am extremely happy that I will have more time to spend with Tnarg now that we aren’t on opposite schedules.
Lastly, I got a hamster! It was a spur of the moment buy at Petco with a 10% off coupon that I got in the mail; but she is the cutest little Dwarf Siberian Hamster I have seen! I named her Dynamite and recently placed an inspiration board over her awesome modular Habitrail brand “cage”… more like a “suite”! On it contains a picture of Alfred Nobel, who is known for the invention of dynamite, a no biting sign (since she is new, she has a tendency to do this out of fear), and various phrases such as “Hamsters CAN do tricks” and “Your teeth will NEVER stop growing”.
Speaking of tricks… check out this YouTube video O found of a Hamster doing Hurdles…
