This is it — this is my latest blogging venture called Asnio. This is more of a personal blog for me, but it’s not solely about my personal life (because no one reads personal blogs anymore). I want to write a blog recording my journeys on the interwebz as a 15 year old blogger and entrepreneur.
More specifically, I want to reflect my experience online making money, tell you about the hardships of being such a young entrepreneur, and lots of other stuff. I hope to meet a lot of other young’uns through this blog.
I’m using Thesis
If you couldn’t tell by the epic look of the blog, I am using Thesis. It is a really cool theme that I am having fun messing around with. I decided I needed a professional looking theme that has great out-of-the-box SEO (because I will be frank with you — SEO isn’t my thing) and presents content in a really nice, clean manner.
Everything about Thesis is awesome. The lifetime support/upgrades, the flexibility of the theme, and so much more. So if you think I will be yet another blogger bragging how good Thesis is — you’re damn right! There’s so much great stuff to talk about when it comes to this theme, so I will do my best to write some tutorials and other Thesis related stuff when I think about it.
I will be constantly tweaking this theme until I’m 100% happy with it (will never happen). For some reason the content and sidebars are different widths in different browsers, and I have no idea wtf is wrong. But I’m working on that, so if the sidebar looks too close to the content in IE, Safari, or Opera (should be okay in Firefox) — I’m seriously sorry!
Some things I want to mention
This is my own blog. It’s not authored by anyone else except me, Alex. So, I am going to cut the “professional blogger” crap and have a little fun with this blog.
Some things I want you to know specifically about my “fun”
- I write for people, not Google. Thesis writes for Google.
- I’m going to be honest, when I put an affiliate link on this blog, I want you to click it. So, to make sure you do check it out, all affiliate links have “gtfo” in the URL so you know to “GTFO” and buy a super cool product. Like Thesis.
- When I say that the New England Patriots and Jacksonville Jaguars are the NFL’s Finest (see sidebar), I mean it.
I want to throw up the occasional article that could help you out in different areas of website building. I try to keep all of my blogging articles at my pride and joy, Blogussion so don’t expect articles about blogging here. However, I do want to write about stuff like freelancing, young entrepreneur stuff, and other things on the internet (social networking for example).
Just check out that cool blue bar up top with the (hopefully working) dropdown menus that has all of the categories on the blog. I am a Mac user, so there will be some Apple stuff I will touch up on. I’m also a WordPress enthusiast, so I will be writing about WordPress plenty too. I won’t go over all of my categories, so check them out!
So that’s all I want to really say for now; THAT is Asnio. You should probably subscribe to my RSS feed because it’s going to get a lot more interesting soon enough.

–Mig
Yeah, I have been working on it for about a week now. I’m pretty happy with what I’ve got so far.
Thanks for stopping by — the blog isn’t really launched yet and I already have a comment! :p
Your site is looking seriously hot! Very nice work
Thanks Corey. I’m still not totally happy with it though!
Good job and you’re only 15 omg, that’s awesome, good luck on this, I’ll RSS for sure
I appreciate it Jorge, glad to have you as a subscriber.
Love the site design. The bottom is freakin’ pimp dude! I can see that being industry-standard.
Yeah, I love that thing too dude. This theme will be available for free in multi-colors soon.
Hey the blog looks great! Isn’t wordpress wonderful? I hope to chat and share insight and ideas with you. It is amazing that you have such skills and are so young. I started designing sites when I was around 16 and now I am 21 and own my own business. Anyways I found you through blogussion which rocks! On twitter I am @montanaflynn
Thanks Montana, WordPress is amazing. Can’t imagine working with anything else!
I guess I got a couple years head start on you in designing? :p Just kidding man, that’s friggen’ awesome you started your own business.
I followed you on Twitter, hope to have some chats!
A lovely launch man.. Good Luck !
Uber kewl Alex!!
You sure love Thesis
I am looking forward to your posts.
I too am planning a personal blog on farrhad.com.
Anyways, Good Luck! I will be back and I will be commenting more
Sounds cool, farrhad.com :p Let me know when it’s up!
Hey dude, nice blog!
I saw someone was commenting on all the blogs I go around and wondered who it was, didn’t realise it was this site
I look forward to your posts and will definately stay tuned 
The theme looks awesome.
Like the blog Alex. The design is very professional. I will make sure to start commenting.
Thanks Jake, I’m going to go through your blog later on. Haven’t been there in a while.
Sometimes, I confuse with “asino” and “asnio” !
If thinking I’m a jackass is an easy way for you to remember me, then go for it man.
Are u sure ?
Just kidding…
Dead serious man.
Which website link you use for commenting on other blogs and why ?
I switch both of them up so I can promote them equally. But I do promote Blogussion more as it is more active.
hi, you are the youngest blogger i’ve ever known, keep working…
Jage´s last blog ..i-Mobile TV630, Handphone With TV Tuner
I think Ive mentioned this before, at 15 years your 10 years ahead of when I started so keep at it — by the time you get to 25 youll have more money than you can spend. Annother compliment (Im feeling very generous today!) — your grammer is way better than most 15 years olds let alone 30 years so well done!
Alex @ Storm Shadow Costumes´s last blog ..Childs Storm Shadow Costumes
You built a blog about blogging, you built a personal blog, you did it in a very kick ass cool design and you’re still 16? Don’t kid me. I built a blog about blogging, built my own personal blog (both of them written in indonasian, that’s the difference), do a wordpress theme building, and i am 19! Man, what a shame to me. There’s somebody who are younger than me and do it in a smarter fashion way!
You’re rock, Alex. i love this blog.
Best Regards from Indonesia.
Congratulations this is a well put together and useful site. Keep it up.
PSP Go´s last blog ..Buy Sony PSP Go – Quick Buying Q&A
