			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Welcome back to the new incarnation of my personal web site. As you&#8217;ve probably noticed, the address has changed from headdresstattoo.com to nickmeador.org. I had a few reasons in mind for the change. First of all, nickmeador.org is easier to remember and quicker to type. Second, it&#8217;s become apparent over the past six months that there are many people in the world named Nick Meador. A quick Facebook search turns up about seven of us. And thanks to my understanding of digital marketing and search engine optimization, I know that I&#8217;ll have to compete against all of them on something like Google search results. For example, when I typed in &#8220;Nick Meador&#8221; on Google in the fall of 2008, the only entries I saw were things related to me. Now I see some pages related to a high school student in Texas who is trying to get recruited for college football.</p>
<p>Some of you may be asking yourselves, &#8220;What&#8217;s the big deal?&#8221; Well, you may have noticed that I currently self-publish all my writing and creative work. In fact, I plan on self-publishing, promoting, and distributing books in the future. But this depends on my ability to control my online presence. However, a longer explanation will get stale, so let&#8217;s leave it at that.</p>
<p>This blog will now be used less often for heated arguments, and more often for news about my activities and whereabouts. (Note: if you still want heated posts, see my <a href="http://www.supraterranean.com/blog" target="_blank">Supraterranean Admin Blog</a>). My most recent news item: I was hired as Web Content Administrator at Michigan Radio, the NPR affiliate in Ann Arbor, Michigan. I start on Monday and I&#8217;m really excited. I think it will be a chance to combine my interests of journalism, online publishing, and social media/digital marketing.</p>
<p>With that said, I hope the beginning of 2009 has treated you well. I&#8217;ll catch you on the flip side.</p>
