Coffee With Hesham of Famous Bloggers
Image via Wikipedia
A week ago I went to Houston to visit family. During some free time I got the chance to meet and visit with Hesham of Famous Bloggers. We met for coffee and ended up spending about 2 hours drinking coffee and talking about everything. This was not an interview maybe sometime in the future I will get the chance to interview him. I will be back in Houston sometime during the end of the month and we plan to get together if we have the time meet again.
I went into this meeting mostly as a chance of making new contacts and friends. What I came back with is a wealth of information about Hesham, not only about his personal life, but his life as a blogger and his future plans for several different websites he is working on.
During our talk, we talked about my site, my involvement with social media and helping him on few projects. By the end of our conversation I had learned a lot about blogging and advice about writing a better blog. Because of his advice, I will be starting a change to the content of Evolutionary Designs and moving more into design oriented posts. Of course I will still post about social media and blogging tips as both subject are part of new media.
So if you are wondering what I will be posting about in the future, I plan to post more about graphic design, web design, WordPress programming and design, and photography. I will continue to post about social media, SEO blogging resources, software, and technology advancement whenever I come across new information.

I would have to agree. I try and stay away from blogging at least one weekend a month, but it doesn't really recharge the batteries. It mostly to spend times with friends and family. After my vacation, I was recharged and had a bunch of ideas lined up. Now I am working on those ideas and hope I can get them complete by my next trip in August.
