Wow, I actually managed to ship this thing called blog. Wasn’t easy, you know. Sometimes I tend to think big and forget to focus on the things that actually matter.

Yeah, yeah, I know. Could have just used Wordpress or Blogger or something. True. But I’m a programmer, dammit, I can write my own blog software!

I realize it’s not the most effective way of doing things — especially if all you want is to get the friggin’ thing up and not to think about it.

But I’m a programmer. And not a really good one, either. I need to learn stuff, find out how the world (wide web) works and, most importantly, write some code. Lots of it, actually. Thus, when I wanted to learn how to do web programming in Python, writing my own website seemed like a pretty good idea.

Also, did I mention I tend to be a bit control freaky at times?

So here we are. At the moment of writing this little post, we’re running Python 3.1.1, qp as the web framework, Durus for the data storage and FreeBSD-powered VPS, courtesy of ARP Networks.

And that’s all — no one really reads the first blog posts anyway.
