Who am I? My name is Duane Charles. I am an aspiring producer, musician, singer, songwriter and engineer. Sound familiar. It should. As independent artists, we take on many roles to further our careers in the new age of the internet, technology and information.
Like many aspiring indie artists, I have taken full advantage of the new technologies that are available to me. I have also discovered you can pretty much gain knowledge of anything you want on the internet, if you are willing to look for it.
Over the years, I have witnesses the growth of sites like Yahoo, Google, MySpace and Facebook. I have literally watched the internet transform from many individual sites to what is fast becoming a universal social 2.0 community. Amazing... As the internet continues to grow, so does my fascination with 2.0 technology.
So where does that leave me. Duane Charles, the aspiring producer, musician, singer, songwriter and engineer.

The good news; the answers are out there. The bad news; your going to spend a lot of time figuring it out on your own...
So instead of going down another trail, I decided to go on a journey. The only problem with this journey... I can't travel it alone. The answers I seek are found in each individual independent artist asking the same questions. No different than each individual web page that make up the Google search network. Each page containing answers to the puzzle
