Hi! I'm Joe and this is my website.
My name is Joe Siegler. I've spent most of my life being online, going back to my first modem in an Apple // on CompuServe in the 80's, through Fidonet, and onto the Internet. My online footprint has evolved to this blog and my social media presence, which you can see elsewhere. These days I work for "The Social Element", a social media company out of England. My hobbies (I suppose) are TV sci-Fi (Doctor Who, Star Trek), baseball (Texas Rangers & Phillies), and music (hard rock mostly, but not all that). I have a totally separate sites about my love of the Texas Rangers and the band Black Sabbath. This blog is mostly my thoughts on movies and music, as well as quite a few stories about my years working for Apogee/3D Realms.
Let's keep in touchFollow Me on Twitter
Of all the social media platforms out there, I prefer Twitter (I know it's called "X" now, but screw that). It's by far my favorite, the immediacy speaks to me. Properly managed, it's an amazing tool. People need to not try and drink from the firehose, that's a problem. Learn how to properly curate the flood of info, and you'll love it.
