Ah, what a brilliant cliché to begin with. Hello indeed and welcome to my blog.
I was sitting in my personal cinema this afternoon playing various games such as Mario Kart, Kororinpa and Eledees on my Wii console when I decided I should be doing something else, something that I’ve wanted to do for a long time. I set about downloading, reading about and installing wordpress, the blogging application with which I have written this entry.
For at least the past two years I have had a conscious thought in my head that I should re-make my website. Partially this is because it is rubbish and no longer a representation of my skill set and partially it’s because I’m a developer, eternally unsatisfied with results, always thinking of ways to make something even better than the previous iteration.
My good friend Ben Dodson has recently launched a new website, inspired by his new found freedom from a managerial hierarchy, boldly sailing the seas of freelancing. It’s most likely this reason why I’m here now, writing this first article.
So, why AM I here? A good question indeed. I like ranting, educating and researching so expect some posts in the future on some of those subjects. I’d like to moan to you all about CCTV and why it’s a good thing, why drivers and pedestrians annoy me (miscellaneous people in general), how green peace managed to go from boring hippies to dangerous propagandists in my mind, Why I oddly for a developer dislike Macs, and many other things, maybe even some related to my skill set as a web developer!
I’ll leave this entry here, as my fitting entry into the blogosphere. Hello World, here I come!
