December 9, 2019 Announced plans for V2

750words.com was originally launched on December 15th, 2009. The blog post I wrote a few days after launching it accidentally got deleted many years ago, but I found it on the WaY bAcK mAcHiNe:

I launched it 4 days after thinking of the idea.

This interview describes some of the journey from a business perspective:

    As a full-time job, I find it difficult to engage with social media while working on projects. I've considered hiring someone to do that... But alas, everything is a trade-off, which has led to two of the biggest lessons I've learned:

    1.Don't try to learn a new skill just to do it badly at once.
    2.In business, everything is a trade-off, and in most cases, it's time or money

About

I was inspired by morning pages (popularized by Julia Cameron’s The Artist’s Way) and built the site for myself. It grew organically for years with minimal new features and will be turning 10 this year.
