Just Start
A quarter-century in the making — after 25 years of building online, I’m finally starting something personal — a blog to share my journey, insights, and voice.

Reclaiming Digital Sovereignty
I deleted 17 years of tweets. Digital sovereignty matters. It starts with three simple steps Big Tech would rather you ignore. One is starting a blog.

This exchange is part of why I started @MarcusDotBlog — real dialogue, sans algorithms or character limits deciding what matters.
On social media, this conversation would've died in the feed within hours. On my blog, it becomes a permanent asset that compounds — building value for years, not just the 48 hours that the algorithm grants it visibility.
We're having the kind of conversation Big Tech's engagement metrics can't measure: the kind that actually changes how people think about digital ownership.

The Drywall Wireframe
Every entrepreneur has an origin story. Mine begins wireframing on a dusty slab of drywall in Kitimat, British Columbia, Canada, with my father, Kris Cyganiak.

The Job That Paid in T-Shirts and DVDs
From TNA Wrestling forum fan at 14 to building their website for t-shirts and DVDs. How unpaid experience led to a WWE offer and ultimately launching Solespire.
