Welcome to the Main web

This website serves as what are BLOGs for many people. I have looked at various BLOG software and services and they do not fit my train of thought. I tend to come back to topics again and again at regular intervals and do not have the scribble and forget mentality which blogging seems to require.

The old website running on Twiki recently ran into some problems (somebody did not like what it said so much that they dos-ed it out of existence). Handling the DOS resulted in a cascade of misunderstandings with my webhost and ultimately in rebuilding the machine this website runs on. I am slowly moving the data from the old site piece by piece and migrating it to FosWiki? at the same time.

There are 4 main sections which more or less represent my present my main interests:

• Network, Linux, Applications - Twiki, RT, Debian, etc
• Travel - Travelog and travel rants
• Education? - Thoughts on education, mostly on the British variety
• Various Rants? that do not belong to a specific topic
• To be remembered? - a section dedicated to great people I knew from the pre-web days who have passed away before the web became pervasive enough for them and their work to leave a permanent trace in the http getsalt.
