Welcome Back

For whatever reason, I decided it was time to come back.

Previously, just for fun, in an earlier life, I had a little self-hosted blog going.  I didn’t spend a lot of time on it, I didn’t spend a lot of time writing on it, and it certainly wasn’t that interesting, except maybe to me.  I was using Blogger as my publishing platform, back when it had the ability to push changes to a self-hosted site over FTP.  At some point, they stopped allowing that.  And that was it for me. I didn’t feel like doing anything with my old blog and moving it to Google’s servers, and it became completely static.  Dead.  It was a ghost town on the web.

That was two years ago.

Then the other day, I started thinking…  I have 100GB of hosted web space that I’m not doing much of anything with.  How stupid is that?  I mean, at the very least, I should have a blog on there or something…

And then it was in my head.  Which is never a good thing.  So I installed WordPress and configured it.  And here we are.

I’ll write primarily about technology and language.  Or language and technology.  And there might be the occasional non-partisan commentary on political stupidity.  I also have a photostream going on here, which is something new for me, and I’m looking forward to keeping that updated.  I seem to take pictures wherever I am anyway, but now I have somewhere to put them.  It makes sense.  Check the photos out here.

So welcome. Now we’ll wait and see what happens…
