I’m not an early adopter. Despite having been involved (seriously involved!) in computers and computer technology since 1982, I seem to like what I’m used to. One might say that it’s because I’m going gray, but that’s been happening since I was 20. No, the truth is that I like doing new things but I like doing them with tools with which I’m already familiar.
But the time has come to at least start using tools that have been around for a few years now and that is why I’ve started this web-log. I’ve also started a Wiki which you can check out at http://linuxwiki.riverworth.com/. These two items mark the first non-hand-coded HTML pages I’ve ever done. That’s right! Every one of the hundreds of web pages I’ve done in the past were either hand-coded HTML or generated by software (perl, php, c, etc). Like I said… Not an early adopter.
So why am I doing this now? Well… I’ve got some things to say and this seemed the easiest way to say it. Who knows, perhaps somebody will even read it!
