Starting a Blog.

Inspired by a friend's writing in the endless heat of a summer that makes me loathe going outside, I've decided to start a blog to practice my own writing. It's something I've thought about doing for a long time now, and I've finally just hit the point of reasoning 'well why not?' So here I am, starting my very first blog post.
Go away Sun, you suck.

What this blog is

I chose the name 'buzzwords' because most everyone familiar with technology should recognize the term immediately. Buzzwords are words or phrases used by public relations personnel to try and invoke specific ideas or reactions in their audience. Usually these terms try to sell you on how something will help you improve your life through 'innovation' or 'streamlining'. Wikipedia even has a helpful list. Buzzwords are very commonly used by the big business side of gaming, and I decided I wanted to poke a little fun at it since video games are going to be the primary focus of this blog.

Gaming is one of my primary hobbies and this blog should reflect that quite clearly as time goes on. This will include industry news, game reviews, and my opinion on anything in the industry I feel like talking about. My current goal is to find my way into games journalism as it's always interested me, and now that I'm done with school I've decided to pursue that dream more seriously. All of that said, this blog will also feature content on movies as well as television. I suppose to sum it up most succinctly, my blog will be about my hobbies, and likely less so my personal life.

This first post is going to be a pretty short one, as I'm still figuring this out and mostly just wanted to get things up and going while figuring out how all of this works. Hopefully I'll be updating this regularly, and with any luck some people will actually read it! Feel free to leave any comments, criticisms, or thoughts on anything here, I'm always looking to improve.
