Haulix Weekly Update #78 – “I’m so hungry, I could eat at Arby’s.”

Hello, everyone. Thank you for finding a little time in your busy schedule to stop by our blog. James, the guy who runs this page, has finally wrapped his week at SXSW and is currently writing this post while lying in his hotel bed the verge of exhaustion. Here’s his favorite discovery of the week:

Each and every weekend we like to take a brief break from our regularly scheduled programming to update and reflect on everything happening at Haulix HQ. We are far more than a music blog, as many of you already know, and posts like this give us an opportunity to share more our efforts with all of you.

Okay, enough writing in the third person. I (James) want to begin this update by extending a sincere thank you to our readers and social media followers for a fantastic week of engagement and fun. I also want to thank Haulix for continuing to be the greatest job I’ve ever had, not to mention always being there to support me whenever I needed help of any kind. If I can give anyone advice in this life it’s to find something you love doing and do it to the best of your abilities. I know that may seem impossible, but with my two-year anniversary at Haulix fast-approaching I can tell you it’s worth the effort.

There are no new development updates this week, but I do have a good explanation as to why our recent release scheduled has slowed. After reading through the responses given to our yearly client survey we sat down and developed a plan to completely overhaul our service. We know people like what we do, but we also know we could do it better, and we could also design a better looking platform to run it on. We have a plan in place to make all that a reality now, and all we ask is for a little patience while we put things into motion.

The biggest blog news this week is that we didn’t run a single piece of content not related to SXSW 2015. We recorded a few interview that you will no doubt hear soon, but the content posted in recent days all related to the things saw, heard, and learned from the streets of Austin. Here is a quick recap:

That is all we have for right now. I’ll be running additional SXSW content in the days ahead, in addition to our normal blog offerings.

Thanks for stopping by!
