Among other things, I&#8217;ve been working as a media consultant for the state of Utah this year — specifically related to Utah Lake. To help promote the lake as a tax-funded and public resource, I helped officials launch and now maintain a new editorialized website at utahlake.gov (pictured).
Local media, however, isn&#8217;t a fan — at [...]]]></description>

Today, my brownie got detained in airport security. MLIA.

Next time write it on Facebook, mister, and see how that works for you.
DISCLOSURE: I regularly design and publish websites.

Griffio, my web development boutique, today launched the redesign of HistoricalArts.com—a rad architectural metalwork company from West Jordan. It&#8217;s the fourth new site we&#8217;ve launched this year, and the second for Historical Arts since becoming their web vendor in 2005. Nice to finally see it live.

In addition to being a gun-for-hire, savvy readers know that Smooth Harold is also a part-time proprietor (aka entrepreneur on the side). I&#8217;m not a very good one—at least in terms of making money. But I enjoy building things. So I build websites. This is my latest.

It just took a while before someone came out and said it. Here&#8217;s my latest from GigaOM, also syndicated on CNN/Fortune, entitled &#8220;Beta is dead&#8221;:

Last year, I put my RSS reader on a diet, going from over 400 subscriptions to just 67 (I&#8217;m down to 46 currently). This year I&#8217;m cutting two &#8220;unsociable&#8221; networks from my geek intake: [...]]]></description>
