I’m really an overambitious person… I work full-time, yet I now write five different blogs, as well as administering quite a few groups on Facebook. Oh, and a forum for the Existential Questions blog…
Allow me a minute or two to run through my side projects which I operate in addition to my personal blog at http://janihelle.wordpress.com and my Political Science/Stupidity blog at http://hellipsis.wordpress.com.
My most ambitious project has to be Existential Questions. Over a few beers I got a great idea for a Facebook group and a blog, as well as a forum and a web TV channel in the works.
The whole idea is to collect a database of responses to life’s questions, such as What Is The Meaning Of Life? and Are We Alone In The Universe?, as well as debating about more controversial issues such as Abortion and Creation vs Evolution.
If you’re interested, you can find the blog at http://existentialquestions.wordpress.com. Don’t forget about the Forum, the Facebook group, or the Existential TV channel!
My two newest projects are only a few days old. Somewhat similar to Existential Questions, these two are attempts at Travel Guide 2.0. As the web moves towards being more and more user-generated, most travel guides are still dragging their feet.
With this in mind, I have started the Budapest City Guide and the Helsinki City Guide, two cities close to my heart.
The whole premise is that you can spend years in one city and never learn about all the cool places to go, see and experience. Traditional travel guides only go so far as to mention that these places exist. People who actually spend time there will always know better. That is the key point with these groups/blogs. Anyone who reads this and has been to, lived in or wanted to visit Budapest or Helsinki could gain from these guides. All it takes is for you, the reader, to share your experiences! Please visit the blogs at http://budapestcityguide.wordpress.com and http://helsinkicityguide.wordpress.com and don’t forget to subscribe to the RSS feeds for each site! If you’re on Facebook, don’t forget to check out and join the Budapest City Guide group and the Helsinki City Guide group!
I’ll leave you with a few slogans for these projects:
Do You Exist?
