Coming late to the party

I’ve been contemplating blogging for a while, but couldn’t find sufficient motivation to get started. Recently I’ve realized a few people I know have been maintaining blogs for some time now. My friend Jef, and his girlfriend Becky met through their blogs on LiveJournal, and my former roommate Peter has just started a blog on Salon Blogs

Over at simple geek : photoJournal, you can find beginnings of a photoblog I’m hoping will keep me on track with making pictures. Right now I’m working on customizing WordPress to handle the photoblogging duties for me. When I’m done I’ll make: the plug-in, CSS, and Javascript files available for public consumption.

Primarily this written blog will contain: sundry geek rants, notes on my progress losing weight, details of my weight-loss failures in the form of recipes, the occasional movie review, and miscellaneous ruminations on my life. I’ll also be playing around with some WordPress plug-ins, so keep an eye out for new features (and falling rocks…er, code).
