The Purpose of this Blog

Here we go, yet another blog to add to the blogosphere! I say add because I hope and believe that I can add something to the community with my posts and thoughts. What community you ask? Well, being a software developer in Silicon Valley most of my posts will be about development problems that I have proudly solved, or other tidbits that I found interesting enough to write about. But I will also mix in more personal posts about riding my motorcycle or my travels throughout the world. We will see how it goes!

In the title of this post I mentioned that this blog actually has a purpose, and in fact it even has a dual purpose:

For now this blog will be the focal point of my personal development efforts. I have had a lot of code snippets and little tools on my hard drive for quite some time now and was looking for a way to publish them with little effort. Eventually there will be a separate sub-domain for code I want to share, but I want to start small, otherwise it will never get done. Also, this blog is running on my own server, because I want to experiment with different things and development tools, all of which I will probably write about in the future. This also means that sometimes something might not be working, but I hope there will only be minor glitches (otherwise let me know please)!
Instead of rehashing content I see elsewhere on the web, I would like to share things that I wasn't able to find anywhere. Thanks to the power of the available search engines even a blog with only a few entries and little traffic can be found by someone looking for the solution for a specific problem, and I hope I will be able to provide some of that help in the future (just like others have done for me).

So much for my first post, the next one will have actual content!
