Where have I been? School, this school year absolutley killed me. I was jammed with plenty of homework, but still pulled the A’s I need. My AP Lit class was the killer of time as we read a total of about 12 books ranging from The Great Gatsby, Pride and Prejudice to Slaughter House Five. I do not feel the need to ramble about my studies seeing as they are not important to the you guys.

The main reason I am writing this up is to bring up two main points. One, I am slowly going to jump on the horse again. I want to begin to do more reviews, Linux Applications, and general tech talks. Although I do want to a lot less formal about it. I am beginning to like the less formal approach of blogging. I enjoy reading a persons thoughts and feelings rather than mindless technical jabber. I want to be more general with my tech. I will focus on Android and Linux because those are the systems I use day to day, but I also want to talk about Music (I will explain soon my dive into the Dubstep world) and other small topics.

Another thing which I want to do is make this a personal thought journal. This blog has never been about getting viewers to make money nor has it been about marketing. It has always just been a personal outpouring of myself and in the same way I wish to outpour what is realliy happening in my life. In the last two years I have begun to experience something amazing and life changing. I know not all of you believe, and I want to make it clear to all before I start this on my blog that I do not want to shove anything down anyones throat. That is the opposite of my goal, but in the last two years I have begun to experience God. I am not talking about some far off deity, but rather Jesus Christ and the Father. I did not have a fast relgious experince, but rather I had a slow thought provoking process where I found the God in the Bible to be who He says He is.

Since this is what has affeted my life this is what I wil write about. If you do not wish to read it then do not. Please do not comment on it if you wish to be rude, however I do encourage people who do not believe to comment on their ideas. I am always willing to hear what people believe. Otherwise this is the only other major change happening to this blog. I will try as hard as I can to get posts out as quick as I can.

Please leave any comments if you wish.

Here is a recent picture of me.

Someone asked me what widgets i use on my desktop. The picture above shows the only two. One is a basic system information widgets telling me tempature, hdd space, fans speed, processor speed, etc. The other is a binary clock which is just for geek cred. Bonus points if anyone can tell me what time I took this picture.

My question to you is what do you want to see from here?  Would you like me to stay more Linux focused or more to generalized tech. I was kicking around the idea of making a book  mostly being short guide to Linux. What do you think of that? Or how about the podcast, if I can get more people on would you listen more? Any other ideas are welcome with an open mind. I want to know what my audience wants. As always thank you for your continued reading and subscription to my blog!
