About Jason Burns
My name is Jason Burns and I am a full time software developer and part time blogger. I am not quite making a living blogging, but the hobby is definitely paying for itself.
About Me
I started blogging in 2003. I have always loved writing, but I had never considered trying to gather a large audience other than friends and family. As my blog grew from a pet project to a website with considerable readership, blogging became a passion of mine. The medium is so interactive and communicating with readers from all over the world is simply fascinating.
I have made friends all over the world and continue to do so. Eventually it would be nice to generate a substantial income from my blog, but until that day comes I will continue to write and communicate for the reasons that brought me here.
[Note 1/7/2008] I want to disclose that I now work for Microsoft. I will still maintain my OS Agnostic viewpoint, but per Microsoft’s policy, I want to make sure that it’s public knowledge that I am a representative of their company now.
About Philoking.com
The name comes from the Philosopher King, Plato’s leader of his fictional utopia. What does that have to do with Technology? Nothing actually, but when Yahoo’s Small Business services hijacked my digitaljason.com domain, I was in a hurry to pick another and it was unique and it stuck.
This blog , podcast and now videocast is all about technology, software, consumer electronics and the like. It’s starting to dive more and more into web strategies as well. I hope you enjoy the content and continue to interact as I grow.
