Here We Go!

It’s been a minute since I last updated. As some may have guessed, after launching CryptoArtNet, I continued deeper into the crypto and NFT rabbit hole and have been having an amazing time.
Here are my current projects:
NFT Entrepreneur follows the business of NFTs.
CryptoArt News has relaunched with a focus on CryptoArtNet members.
CryptoArtCoin will emerge this year or I will give up my informal title, CEO of $CRAC!
NFT Security is a Twitter account aggregating scam alerts and security insights.
NFT News Wire was, for a time, an NFT press release blog. I now retweet news from the Twitter account.
NC Arts Asylum is providing updates about the UNCSA abuse lawsuits.
Oh, yes, I’m also now making cryptoart as Flux Art NFTs!
CryptoArtNet is the latest project from Clyde F. Smith launched in May 2020.
The site features a directory of CryptoArtists, periodic CryptoArt news, NFT Art releases and both Crypto Art and Crypto Artists on Twitter!
Cryptoart is a new development based on blockchain technology and nonfungible tokens.
Say what?
Check it out at CryptoArtNet: A Directory of Artists Making CryptoArt.
Our first posts at CryptoArt News:
CryptoArtNet Launches Directory of Artists Making CryptoArt
CryptoArtNet Artists Directory Rolls Out CryptoArtCoin – $CRAC
See you there!
Big news in one sense but a rather small development at this stage. DanceLand is building a Dance Directory starting with North Carolina Dance Studios.
I’m taking a very simple approach after more complex approaches didn’t work out. Basically a chance to experiment and see if there’s interest in this sort of thing.
However, most of my time at DanceLand is spent posting news and videos:
Dance Business
Dance Education
Dance Videos
We’re getting a good response to our dance posts, traffic is growing and people seem to appreciate what we’re doing. It’s an ongoing process but I’m definitely seeing signs that DanceLand is finally on track as we try to build a new home on the web for the world of dance.
I’m happy to report that I successfully relaunched DanceLand: Dance and Movement Arts and am now regularly posting Dance Videos and Dance Business News.
I’m also finishing up the behind-the-scenes work on a directory of dance studios which should launch later this month. We’re back!
I recently launched a new site called Transforming The Game: Business Transformation. It focuses on innovative moves that changed and sometimes saved businesses. From Disney creating Disneyland to Google launching AdWords, it’s going to cover a lot of ground.
You can get the backstory at Flux Research.
Happy 2019!
I’ve moving my proam web updates from clydesmith.com to clydefsmith.com. This move is part of a larger shift in my online identity from Clyde Smith to Clyde F. Smith.
I did all my early writing, from poetry to academic research papers, as Clyde F. Smith. When I started creating websites and shifting to more commercial writing in 2001, I decided to go with Clyde Smith. It seemed simpler and there weren’t many of us online.
However I’ve decided to consolidate all writing, creative and commercial identities as Clyde F. Smith.
I’ll be occasionally updating as a simple log of my activities including active websites.
I can be contacted at clyde(at)fluxresearch(dot)com.
I'm moving my updates from this blog to Clyde F. Smith. It's part of a larger reclamation and consolidation of my pre-web writing identity with my online activities.
You can find out a bit more at From Clyde Smith to Clyde F. Smith.
See you there!
I blog occasionally for Dash Two on digital marketing and sales with some posts appearing on Hypebot.
I relaunched Cultural Research with a short report on Working Sessions including a dialogue with Jeb Bishop.
Still periodically posting at Crowdfunding For Musicians with updates to the Music Crowdfunding Sites.
I'm working on yet another relaunch of DanceLand to feature a directory of dance studios.
I shut down Playlist Biz as discussed at Flux Research.
Music Biz Blogs continues.
