Introducing TechGeneral
26 Aug 2008
Since April 2003, I've maintained this web log as a mixed-bag of posts about technology, about work, about my travels, about politics, and about books, movies, games, and other forms of entertainment.
Since just over a week ago, all my technology thoughts will be appearing on my new technology web log, TechGeneral.
Likely topics on TechGeneral are:
- open source (or Free Software, if you prefer),
- scalability,
- security,
- the Python programming language,
- technology events I'm interested in and/or attend,
- becoming a better developer,
- finding/hiring developers and other technology workers, and
- motivating and getting the most out of them.
I'll continue to maintain this web log, focusing on other topics:
- books, games, movies, and other entertainment,
- events I'm interested in or attend,
- travel inside and outside of Cape Town,
- experiences with people and organisations,
- random opinions on topics such as politics, and
- that blogging about blogging thing.
I've realised that the people who read my technology posts (predominantly outside of South Africa) probably don't care much about the other stuff. The people who read my other stuff (predominantly inside South Africa) probably don't care all that much about the technology stuff either.
I hope this split helps improve the subjective signal to noise ratio for those who follow what I have to say.
