Today, I gave ruby’s ecosystem of web tools a try. Wordpress isn’t a good blogging solution for me, but i would like to have a public-facing, non-site-specific blog to pass about. I am giving Octopress a try for managing my my non-machine readable output.

I am enjoying the prospect of using a completely flatfile blog; as that means I have one less moving part to worry about.

Hopefully I will have the motivation to post about some useful information here. It turns out that the things that infuriate me tend to be very helpful to others, so keep your eyes peeled.
