PAX 08: The Destructoid Panel, part two: Making a commitment to blogging (Nick)
Niero | 11:54 AM on 08.31.2008 19 comments


<p></p><p><a href="http://www.destructoid.com/pax-08-the-destructoid-panel-part-one-living-the-dream-in-shakyvision-niero--101813.phtml">My squeaky keynote</a> touched on the importance of creating original content that the gaming blogosphere can use, and how passion for what you love can really get you places in life.  For those that seek the virtues of staying at home in their underwear and talking about video games for a living we bring you part two of the Destructoid Panel: Making a commitment. The message couldn't be simpler -- if you can't stick to updating your blog, you will fail.  Simple as that. Everyone that blogs has busy lives, and Nick is no exception. </p><p>In his segment Chester talks about blogging around his full time job prior to Destructoid, being a dad, his supportive <a href="http://www.destructoid.com/blogs/naia-the-gamer/pax-panel-liveblog-101795.phtml">hot wife</a>, his epic Scorpion CD collection, The Ghoulies, angry ostriches, severed heads, and the importance of aligning a tampon properly before insertion. You know us -- always pushing game journalism forward. </p><p>[Thanks for contributing these amazing slides, Debbey!]</p>

That was a pretty awesome slide show!

I update my blog very regularly, once or twice a month is regular for me and no I don't have pooping issues.

I sometimes wonder if Nick even has a residence, or if he simply forwards his mail to his motel room during his travels. Busy is as busy does.

I just act as if I'm a real blogger. Even if I'm not getting paid for it. Something about just appearing proffesional makes me feel good.

This entire panel was amazing. And yes, Nick's better half is rad as hell for her selections.
