Blog of Rob

Capzilla.net and Simply American

Software

Good news for Neil: I just copied a dump of my old database to my laptop so he can finally complete Simply American with the full history of posts.

Additionally, I will probably put a selection of my old personal posts here, restoring years of journal content!

Obligatory first entry

Personal

This is already my third first journal entry if you count previous attempts on my old "Blog of Rob" and the short-lived LiveJournal I maintained. Or maybe fourth, if you include my Simply American contributions. Sixth if you count the news engines of some of my software projects as well.

But this journal will be slightly different from all its predecessors: all interests of mine that I care to write about can now be found at a single location. It didn't make much sense to continue a thorough separation because of all my writings are based on a single frame of reference anyway.

A significant improvement of this journal in comparison with all previous ones: it is no longer necessary to register a user account to post comments as I have hacked together the seemingly popular method of letting users enter a code displayed in a generated image.

Update: I have imported my old LiveJournal posts of 2005 and will eventually import "Blog of Rob" entries of 2003 and 2004, so technically this is no longer the first post.
