I'm Black in a New Form
Let the idiotic ranting commence.
Hey people. This is the current replacement blog for my old blog that was at bored.homelinux.net. It has been a little over a month since I abandoned my last blog but I am currently feeling up to writing posts again. I was thinking about starting fresh with this blog but I had some fairly decent posts on my previous blog so I imported my old blog posts here; there are some embarrassing posts as well.
I would have liked to host a site myself but there are two main reasons that I am not currently hosting this blog myself. The first one is because I have not been able to afford to get a new server. Like I mentioned previously, my old server was not longer suiting my needs as I started to do more with it. Even if I got a new server, the second reason would still keep me from running a site from my home connection. That reason is that the cable company that I was getting Internet service through, Insight Communications, has been bought out in this area and has now become Comcast. Even though I had messed around with using WebFaction for hosting Django projects, I don't have the spare cash to use a paid hosting provider.
As for why I am using a wordpress.com blog, I had an old account that I only used to get an Akismet key for my previous blog so I figure that I might as well use this service; LiveJournal was also an option, since I have an account with them as well, but I didn't even consider it. This blog will most likely be temporary as I don't know how long this will hold my interest. Also, I would someday like to use a blog written in Django, whether it is written by myself or it is a Django blogging application.
