\n So, I have been thinking a good bit about my blog. As a solution, jekyll seems cool, and very close to my ideal, but it is still not perfect. My WordPress blog automatically tweeted my new posts, which in turn appeared on my Facebook page. Incidentally, I uploaded all my old posts to a posterous blog, and I really like the idea of using posterous. Seriously, email by blog and have it appear. That’s too cool. However, I still want to have my blog hosted on my site as I have always done. Then, earlier yesterday it hit me! Why not use posterous for my blog, and include a rss feed from posterous on my blog site. I looked into the feed, and started mucking around with the ruby to parse and display an rss feed. Found a great little script and started modding it a tad….The end results is this! I am posting this via email to posterous. Either way, it’s cool. Also, posterous tweets and posts to facebook. So everyone will know what is going on!!

Well, I was born on a normal day in July, 1981 and have been creating chaos ever since. Born in North Carolina, but raised in the aftermath of the Soviet Union, Kazakhstan, I have been messing around with computers nearly my entire life. I wrote my first program in assembly when I was 11. In my early teens I ran a BBS connected to Fidonet and started building a website for my band. In 1999 I was introduced to Linux, and it was love at first compile. I started my career in IT in the early 2000's doing IT for a Car Dealership in Charlotte NC. I wrote my first major web app in Cold Fusion (an ecom app) at that time. In 2006 I left Charlotte and moved down to Columbia where starting working as a developer, freelancer and consultant. Currently I am working as a freelance developer and DevOps consultant!!
