About Darren
My name is Darren Rowse and I’m the guy behind enternetusers. You can read a little more about my journey of blogging on the About enternetusers page - but let me take a moment to give you a bit of glimpse at who I am.
I’m a 35 year old Australian living in Melbourne. I am married to ‘V’ and together we have a son, born in 2006. I am a full time blogger making a living from the medium since 2004/5.
I’ve been blogging since November 2002 on a number of sites. I started out with just one at Livingroom - a site about Spirituality, Pop Culture, Life in Australia and miscellaneous topics that take my fancy from time to time. That site spawned a number of others which you can read about here.
I am also one of the founders of b5media - a blog network where I’m the VP of Training.
You can read my story of becoming a full time blogger here.
You might think working on such a variety of blogs would fill my life up - not true. I have a number of other ‘hats’ in life that I work on including:
- blog consulting - I have recently started taking on some work with businesses wanting to explore how blogging can enhance their products and services.
- speaking - I regularly speak at conferences, workshops, retreats on a variety of topics including blogging, new media, spirituality, leadership, community development.
- community - being on the leadership team of a small alternative emerging Christian community, called LivingRoom - I started LivingRoom a couple of years ago and find it to be an enriching part of my life.
- Teleclass - I am also currently involved in running a six week course for bloggers titled Six Figure Blogging which looks at entrepreneurial blogging.
As you’ll be able to tell from my blogs, I’m a photography nut and love getting out and about with my DSLR. I’m also an avid reader, enjoy good food and wine and love a movie.
I hope that’s given a glimpse of who I am and what I do. If you’re a blogger and want to improve your blog then I’d love to keep in touch. You can subscribe to this blog via one of numerous subscription methods and I’d love to hear from you about your experiences of blogging in the comments sections on my posts.
