Spring 2008, and then some.

Hooray!

So we’re off to another great year here at the University of Tennessee and I’m one more semester close to graduation. I’ve decided to go ahead and go for the minor in Information Sciences. If we had a major I would have switched to that long ago, but since that isn’t available this will have to do.

On that note, IS 102, the introduction to the IS minor is interesting. I won’t lie, it’s far too basic for me. We’re starting on what computers are and not going too terribly far from that. Computer Science 102 and 160 both taught me more than this class can, but the context is certainly different which makes it not a complete waste of time. In either case it’s unavoidable at this point in time since the professor responsible for the minor left but a few months ago. We’ll make this interesting however. As versed as I am in Django, I have not had a chance to fiddle with Drupal. So I’ll be taking some class related time in the coming weeks to develop some Drupalie stuff. Good times. More

I figure every site/blog/journal needs an inaugural post. So here it is.

This is a second run at making use of this domain, oddly enough, the slightly misguided vision for the first attempt ended up being realized after all.

So to those who ever saw the old edition, I apologize for letting it linger for as long as it did. In the interim, this space was largely utilized as a test bed for some RapidWeaver magic (a fun app worth checking out).

So now, after some time, travel, and reading, I’ve settled on marginally maintaining a presence on the web beyond Facebook and my long abandoned LiveJournal.

What will be on here? Hopefully some insights into online journalism and technical issues related to that (for as long as that lasts), software design, web design, broadcasting, and whatever else strikes me and isn’t ridiculous.

Cheers.
