August 28th, 2007The Ever Positive Karl Moore
There are quite a few blogs out there that are consistently positive and well written, but none are quite like the one I found today at Karl Blog.
The blog is written by Karl Moore, one of the world’s top developers and the CEO of US-based media group White Cliff. He’s also the author of two VB.net books (Visual Basic.NET: The Tutorials and The Ultimate VB.NET and ASP.NET Code Book) and, as chance would have it, I own them both.
Despite his incredible knowledge of software development, and the various projects he works on, Karl Blog does not focus on technology. Instead, we’re treated to some inspirational messages designed to help people in their spiritual growth, without discussing any particular religion or faith. On Mondays we’re treated to Random Act of Kindness, with many of these being so insanely simple it makes me wonder why I haven’t done these things more often, and on Friday we get a Factoid. I particularly enjoyed his commentary on the interrobang, as I had seen the symbol a few times in life but never knew what it was called or the language it was supposed to belong to.
With all the negativity on the interwebs, it’s nice to know that a site like Karl’s exists. It’s already made it into my Top 10 daily reads, and I encourage everyone to check it out.
hmm interesting site, i’ve never heard of him before but he seems like a very interesting person. radio personality, author, programmer, tv host, doesn’t seem like there’s anything he can’t do. i went to his personal site and the audio welcome was a bit creepy but other than that, he seems pretty freakin amazing!
There’s an audio greeting? Hmm … I didn’t know that. I typically mute my speakers unless watching something.
It does seem he can do just about anything he sets his mind to, and this is certainly the power of positive thinking
