Hello everyone! Welcome to my new home page. I hope this one will stay around for at least a few years. I've decided to start with a blog and add my projects and book section later on. Too much at once never works out well, so I've taken approach to do just one step at a time. Is this gonna change anything? I don't know.. Time will tell.
So... a little bit about myself. Technology is one of my passions, I spend a lot of time reading, thinking and living IT. I see a great potential in new ways of solving problems. Ever since I got my first PC (somewhere around 1993) I'm constantly amazed at what possibilities it gives. 20 years ago it was virtually impossible to chat with your friends from all over the world, listen to personalized radio station and buy some books at the same time. Right now this is a very common thing. My personal goal is to create great tools that help people in their everyday tasks, to push the technology to the next level. Sounds like a lot for just one coder, huh? ;)
Why a totally new blog? Why not just use wordpress or typo or anything already available in the wild? Several reasons. First one - it's a nice experience to create your site from scratch. Especially one that's supposed to represent me in some way. The other reason is that I can customize it any way I want. I can literally add ANY functionality and it will work the way I tell it to. That's a great advantage. And the last, but not least - I can test all the new, nifty technologies! Right now I use Ruby on Rails with haml, sass and textile and utlizie OpenID for all my authorization needs. Soon I'll add an RSS feed and adjust templates for mobiles. Everything EXACTLY the way I want it. No existing solution can give me this!
Anyways, I hope I'll be able to squeeze out some time out of my schedule to share my ideas and projects with you through this web site. I also hope someone will actually read what I have to say and leave a comment from time to time. It's really nice to get some feedback on ideas you can't stop thinking about.
Enough for now. Stay tuned...
