It's something I started working on when I became interested in Graphic Design. My first online portfolio was my DeviantArt. This is a free site popular with gamer type kids, though I'm not knocking it. Many artists post incredible work it. But I wanted something more professional looking and manageable. I then created a Coroflot and Behance portfolio.
Shortly after I caved and got a Twitter, Tumblr, LinkedIn, and Flickr. In addition, I started keeping a blog about my summer 2009 internships and decided to keep it after the summer was over (you're reading it!). Oh, and can't forget my Google profile! I also hesitantly updated my myspace. Recently, I joined a community called Good.Is., after doing a paper on Matt Owens of Volume One.
Lastly, I reached my goal of launching my own personal website, EmilyMiethner.com on December 15th 2009.
I do a LOT of updating!! Yes, I could get rid of some of my sites seeing as some of them are repetitive (especially with emilymiethner.com!), but I decided to keep them all. I feel like each one offers different connections to people and opportunities that I don't want to cut. Thus, one of my goals of 2010 is to keep my online presence updated and current!
In other news, I got two little Resident Assistant awards this past semester, Most Creative and The Spontaneous Programming Award! Thanks to Curb Your Enthusiasm for the latter award, I've got to find a new show to watch with residents for spring semester!
And event I'm looking forward to this month: No Pants! Subway Ride. Here's the video from last year!
