I haven’t had a blog in a long time. Earlier, I had a horrible PHP + CSS + MySQL + Contract with the Devil page that I moved around from website host to website host whenever my contract was up for renewal - I always found a reason to leave. Now I’m on a lovely VPS on Linode and I love it.

I tried Jekyll before but had a bear getting it running - now I’m trying Octopress, a wrapper for Jekyll. It’s much easier to use. I’m getting used to it. Now, I get to use my favorite text editor (vim) to create my blog. What a concept!

cool! easy codesharing!

BufferedWriter out = null;
try {
    out = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(”filename”, true));
    out.write(”aString”);
} catch (IOException e) {
    // error processing code
} finally {
    if (out != null) {
        out.close();
    }
