The fact that we really did find a place to move to is finally starting to set in. I deleted my apartment search feeds from craigslist, resulting in considerably liberating feeling. I feel like I have an obligation to read every feed that I subscribe to in “bloglines”:http://www.bloglines.com, so the absence of a constantly updating […]
Qian and I just signed the lease on a new flat. It’s a bit further into noe valley, about 2 blocks from 24th and Castro. It’s a ground level 1 Bedroom (in a building built in 1884!) with a big kitchen, an extra room that we’ll probably use as some kind of living room, a […]

I had pretty much given up on txp, but then I saw this site. Not extremely interesting content-wise, but I do like the layout. I can imagine having a two column page where one column has all my short posts like this one, and another column has all my long rants.

So far, I’ve been quite productive with it. It’s templating system is a bit odd (or rather, […]
Ramesh pointed me to a great collection of essays written by Paul Graham regarding all kinds of topics. Most interesting to me are technology and start up-related.
I’m kinda getting tired of Wordpress, and so now I’m thinking (again) about creating my own blog system. Of course I should go around looking at what’s out there instead of rolling my own, but I want to write some kind of web-app anyways, so I might as well think about how I would build […]
I’ll postpone the review until I get used to it a bit. Besides, I still have the write the review for the Keytronic. I’ll list just a few first impressions though:
It’s black

It has new car smell ;-)
