Okay, so I’ve really let this site sit in a dark corner for quite some time now. Which is rather sad since I love writing and was also hoping I could use this as a tool for remembering some of the stuff I’ve learned. Well that hasn’t happened so far, but I’m not giving up just yet. It’s time for a reboot, and this time I have at least prepared a bit and have a few articles to release in the next couple of days, along with a long list of ideas for further articles.

A few quick updates before I end this rather mundane post. I’m currently trying to learn Japanese, which is both fun and something I think will be useful in the future. I can already read both hiragana and katakana after just two weeks — it’s always more enjoyable when you really see the progress in front of you. One of the coming articles will be about the tools I use for learning Japanese. I just finished a course on WWII that resulted in a 48 page essay and I had such a great time writing it, although the seven course books was a bit of a struggle at times during the short ten week course which was only suppose to be part-time.

It seems like MacHeist season is about to begin again, which means that I will at the very least get a few new Mac applications to play with. I’ll definitely write some articles both on the apps from MacHeist and the experience, including the often superb but sometimes controversial marketing.

Finally I just wanted to make a quick comment on the fact that I love british comedy. Everything from QI to Peep Show and Coupling. These past months haven’t been easy to say the least, but being able to laugh for a few seconds or minutes is pretty much priceless.
