Welcome to Hexar.Net

When I first created this website, I had a fairly clear vision for what I wanted it to be. I wanted to be able to share photos with my friends, to have a place to host my resume and my code samples, and even to have a blog to record and share my life experiences. I wasn't too worried about the things that I was posting because I figured that only my friends would be interested enough to check out my website anyway.

Times have changed. With the introduction of websites like Facebook, in some ways my purpose for the site feels vindicated. Blogs are a big thing now. Sharing photos with your friends and communicating with them what's going on in your life in very common. The problem is, in the past seven years, Facebook has evolved and grown and my website, in a lot of ways, has not. Facebook has privacy controls; you know that only the people you have chosen to trust can access your profile, your photos, and your notes. My website, on the other hand, has no such privacy control; the entire world can view my photos and my "daily thoughts." Furthermore, and just as importantly, a lot of the content was created a long time ago, making the state of my website somewhat inconsistent with who I am and how I want to represent myself.

So I'm repurposing my website, and narrowing the focus. I've noticed over the past couple of years that my inbox gets pinged with queries regarding my interest in various employment opportunities, I assume due to the information contained on my online resume. I can't always pursue these opportunities but I definitely enjoy the fact that recruiters seek me out. What I'd like to do is faithfully represent myself on Hexar.net through resumes, code samples, and a professional blog.

So I'm making the following changes:

  • Removing or hiding most articles, features, and lyrics
  • Password-protecting my photos and my personal blog
  • Creating a brand new professional blog

If you are a personal friend of mine, please feel free to request password access to password-protected areas of the site. Enjoy.
