Welcome Back... Again... For the First Time
Hi There. Again.
If I had a dollar for every time I’ve rewritten this site, I could probably stop paying for hosting out of my pocket. It’s been quite a ride over the last almost-decade (I registered this site in 2002, so I’m jumping the gun a little). I’m trying to chronicle it all in the About section, but suffice to say, I change the site a lot.
Why Django?
I’ve wanted to learn Django for a long time. And not just learn it, but actually write a site using it. Some plug-and-play stuff, some actual code, but really do one from start to finish. What better reason than a rewrite of my site? Plus, it gives me hands-on time to get back in the habit of coding and figure out my workflow. Lastly, portfolio builder.
So What Now?
I don’t know. I guess port over what entries I have in WordPress. I’ve lost a majority of the crap (yeah, the oldest stuff is junk and we both know it), but I do have a few years’ worth of content that I’d hate to lose. I want to build up the blog functionality to be solid enough that I could really package it for use in other apps, and I want to do it incrementally. So right now I can write and tag, next will be categorize, then enable comments. Slow and stead.
So Long, Twitter.

Reply Bloat, or, Why I Really Want Google Wave
Two pretty insubstantial things happened to me today that, when mixed, sparked the great big idea bulb over my head (consequently scaring away all the bugs and dust resting on said bulb). The first was an email notification at work that one of the SharePoint sites I belong to had ...
Changes are Coming
I will definitely share more on this later, but I’m working on bringing my blog back up to what it used to be. What this means for now is no more Twitter on the blog, and more posts. So yeah, stick with me, big changes are coming.
