What is this?

Recently, I've done a lot of reading on and around the subject of social media in a very short space of time. The main catalyst for suddenly devouring such a large quantity of material was receiving an invite to a job interview. This process started just over 2 weeks ago when I learned that I had secured an interview for a social media job. I already blog about various things in my life such as painting miniatures, making things with beads, luthiery and there was also that time I went a bit crazy and decided I was only going to blog in Japanese.

I've come to the realisation that each of these individual blogs, while serving very specific purposes, are only showcasing glimpses into a few of my hobbies and I want to write more. I want to write an honest personal account of topics that matter to me and my observations in life.

Google+ gives every post it's own direct URL so while technically it would be possible to dump the contents of my head directly into Google+ I'm still not sure if the vast majority of people I know actually pay any attention whatsoever to what is happening on Google+. It's obvious that a large number of people in my circles still have the default profile image and cover picture.

So I have created this personal blog and named it "Full Version Unlocked" which seemed a fitting name. Hopefully this will be my bridge between social media platforms and a long term solution for writing essay length statuses on Facebook and running out of characters on Twitter.
