About Kempton

Why blog?

“Writing isn’t about making money, getting famous, getting dates, getting laid, or making friends. In the end it’s about enriching the lives of those who will read your work, and enriching your own life, as well. It’s about getting up, getting well and getting over. Getting happy, okay? Getting happy.”

– A quote from the autobiography “On Writing“ by author Stephen King.

Over the years, Kempton has written extensively about Business, Science & Technology, Law, Movies,TV, Health Science & Medicine, Politics and whatever interests him. And Kempton also aspires to make mistakes faster. From 2004 to 2015, Kempton has made three documentaries entitled “Revolution Trilogy” 「革命三部曲」 which you can watch online.

For the more personal side of Kempton, have a read of his 2,001st blog entry. (update: As of January, 2014, Kempton has conducted over 300 video interviews and written over 5,500 English/Chinese articles. And he does often Google his own blog and use it as a public open knowledge base.)

See Kempton’s background & cv, LinkedIn profile, Goolge+, Flickr photos, YouTube videos, and videos previously posted to Google Video.
