What really made me realise people appreciated the post was the number of comments I received about it offline (you know you’ve hit the big leagues when people bring up your blog post in person!). A few examples include:

I’ve been lazy

Sorry I haven’t been around lately. I’ve been busy with a lot of things and have been trying to figure out how to transfer this blog over to the WordPress CMS.

Who is Adam Jaffrey?

Hey bleeps (blogging peeps),

Welcome to my 1st blog post.

My name is Adam Jaffrey (as the URL suggests) and I reside in the suburb of Nunawading, which is in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne VIC, Australia. I’m a Commerce/Science student studying at Monash University in Clayton VIC, Australia. I’m currently planning to pursue my major studies in marketing, which backs up my very strong sales background.

This blog serves as a point of contact to me for potential employers, other marketers, entrepreneurs & the like. That’s why http://whoisadamjaffrey.com seemed an appropriate domain choice.

Before beginning, I’d like to acknowledge a trap of the blogosphere:

Blogging. Never before have so many people with so little to say said so much to so few.

My goal for this blog is:

To provide a current, relevant and interesting analysis of marketing, entrepreneurial, technological & current affairs topics.

To do this I will keep posts to a minimal length, and only write about thought provoking topics. These will generally be inspired by other blogs, podcasts & my own observations.

Feel free to email me any suggestions.

Enjoy!
