So, one of my goals for 2009 is to revamp the site. A bunch of my traffic has been people looking for Theodore Roosevelt quotes — not exactly what I had in mind. My site needs to actually say what I'm about from the outset.

A goal I have had in mind is to start blogging. Good blogs, though, need regular copy but writing on a regular basis is something I've not been ready for. I still don't think I'm ready for it. But it is time to dare greatly inasmuch as writing on your own webpage is great (or daring.)

Of course, aside from today, I plan to restrict it to technical topics and not boring meta-talk *blush*. I take my inspiration from blogs like Joel on Software and Coding Horror. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Why is this just some HTML in a page and not Wordpress?
Well, I wrote a PHP MVC framework (a great learning experience) and I've long been slightly bothered that I have this amateur website up instead of eating my own dogfood. So this is a start. Trackbacks and RSS feeds will come. I'll try and document my progress here.
