Jon's Blogging In Levittown

Hello everyone! Due to my recent fustration with the website the KW provides me (don't get me wrong, they are useful... But, I wanted a more custom site), I have decided to design my own website from scratch!  Great Idea, I know... But I made the decision and went for it.  So after about 36 hours...

I had an interesting experience while attending a NetParty.com networking event last night in Downtown Austin.  There was a good amount of people there, I made a few connections and had a martini (or 2!).  Overall, I enjoyed myself and I will attend more of their events in...
