A few things have been bothering me about my blog of late.

I think it's mainly due to the fact that I'm writing 'full time', and I suddenly find myself with a structured output for the majority of my work-related content. I find myself frowning a lot when I get sent pitches or content for this blog. As is the standard moan for most media, it's actually not because the content isn't relevant, it's because it's so perfectly targeted - that I'm a tad restricted. 

Since I started this blog, it's been organically focused around social change; from my projects at G20, to Global Cool and the rest. It's not to say that I'm all of a sudden not interested in these areas, I just find myself wanting to be a little more flexible with what I write here. That is, after all, the point of having a blog in the first place.

Take NaBloPoMo for instance. I didn't particularly get on well with the concept of such a regimented schedule - but I might have found it easier had this place been a little more open.

So in the spirit of a new year and a new start, I'm stripping out the boundaries (which I've probably put in place internally, rather than publicly). Silly though it may sound, this is a big step for me. I thrive within structure, and I respond well to some kind of focus at least within my work.

However, c'est la vie. Let's see what happens.
