I decided that I need a blog.  I had earlier in my life used a personal blog on livejournal.com, but I want something more professional now.  It will be as much for myself as for any readers, and so it won’t bother me any if there are none.  I intended to use it to catalogue and index my open source software dealings.  Very often I find I have spent several hours on googling, reading man pages, and testing out esoteric command line sentences setting up some platform.  Sometimes I’ll find myself needing to do that same setup again down the road, and I will find myself searching my google history (hoping I was logged in to google) and grepping my bash history (assuming I still have it).

I need a place to store this stuff and keep it organized.  That’s what this blog is.  A record of those technical notes, commands, and links.
