What’s the point of a website without content? I keep trying to come up with things to put here that have actual meaning or value for an audience, instead of whatever I feel like posting. I may, from time to time, feel the need to rant openly about something that annoys me.
This site would have more things posted if I didn’t stop so often to ask myself “Who cares what I think about that?” and “Why on earth would I want to post that? Seriously, who would even read it?”
I am on some social media sites, but I still prefer to have this site that I can call my own, that can’t mysteriously disappear if some company decides that their business plan is no longer a plan or a business.
This site has existed in some incarnation for over 25 years on this domain, and several years before that in other places. In that time it’s evolved from a simple page of links and random things into what you see here today. As you can tell, not a whole lot has changed.
In the past I had hand-edited the site and then I tried a couple different content management systems in an effort to make it easier, but in reality I still end up ignoring it all too often. Currently I’m using a static site generator for a good mix of automation, security, and ease-of-use.
