The site is purely Markdown crunched through Pelican, a nifty Python static site generator.

I've been a freelance Django developer for about 8 years and always wanted to build a software product of some kind. The idea was to freelance to pay the bills and spend the rest of my time on products.

Well, the products never really worked out, but the freelancing has worked out really well, especially in the last two years since I learned about business. My site now aims to help other developers learn the business skills of freelancing to help people avoid the pitfalls I fell into.

I've been writing to a mailing list where the good emails go into articles on this site.

It is not fancy, uses Makefiles and a few scripts to generate static content; Most of this stuff existed before Node.js and I plan to keep it that way. An old version of this site used to be on geocities, so you can imagine. :)

It contains pointers to very old code and a link to my old favorite sites and my social network profiles; It even has a RSS feed that is updated every few years. ;)

@all: I'm going to go through all of your pages here. Will try my best to connect with you if I am able to!

Can I just chime in to say I appreciate all the folks responding here. I've had various personal websites/blogs in the past but nothing currently. Would love to start one soon again and this just gave me that extra jolt of motivation I think I needed.
