For the most part it&#8217;s harmless, but after all the intern drama on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.alliancewakeskate.com\" target=\"_blank\">Alliancewakeskate.com<\/a>, one of my contribs sent me <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2008\/08\/03\/magazine\/03trolls-t.html?ref=technology \" target=\"_blank\">this article<\/a> and I got a little scared. I mean, I like my identity and good credit. But hopefully none of my internet haters are that serious!<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, most of the time I brush off the haters. Right now you would think I&#8217;d be especially good at it because of all the positive response to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yobeat.com\" target=\"_blank\">Yobeat<\/a>. But for whatever reason, yesterday it got to me. Nate suggested I start a &#8220;burn of the week,&#8221; but unfortunately, none of the haters are very clever. So I just wanted to complain about it for a minute instead.<\/p>\n<p>In better news, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yobeat.com\" target=\"_blank\">Yobeat <\/a>is awesome. Everyone is stoked and I finally got a chance to write my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yobeat.com\/?p=261\" target=\"_blank\">bamboo-hoo story<\/a>. We also got talked about on almost every site that would remotely care and I even got interviewed for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fuel.tv\" target=\"_blank\">Fuel.tv.<\/a> Sadly though, I think I may have been a bit harsh with some of my answers, so they are probably never going to use it. It made me laugh though, so I will give them a few more days and then post the whole thing on here.<\/p>\n<p>I now I have a dumpster at my house, so this weekend will be spent throwing stuff out, and hopefully making it to trifecta at least once. Here&#8217;s a photo I shot of it last year that I like.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/brookegeery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/08\/trifecta.jpg\" title=\"trifecta.jpg\"><img src=\"https:\/\/brookegeery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/08\/trifecta.jpg\" alt=\"trifecta.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Archives I was an early adopter of the internet, and like any one who&#8217;s been around something for awhile, I think it&#8217;s crazy how much it&#8217;s changed.
