Since I started using this alias I have been working on obtaining this domain name and it has finally gone up for sale again this year!
Searching one night out of boredom, I landed up finding out the domain was up for grabs and quickly snatched it up. So here we are, the start of my new personal site.

The Purpose Of This Site
There are several purposes of this site. Here is a list of what I have planned for this domain:
- Main Website
- The main domain is going to be a personal website. I want to use the main domain as more of a 'Meet Me' or 'Resume' type website. Showing off who I am, what skills I have, projects I work on as well as any other information regarding me. I feel it is a great way to show off what I am capable of in a manner that does not seem egotistical. The main site is targeted to be simple, clean, and to the point. While it will link to various other parts of this domain, the main site is going to just handle the basics up front.
- Blog
- The blog portion of my site will cover various topics that I enjoy sharing with others. I do not plan on using a traditional blogging platform though. Instead, I plan to make a custom blog page that uses these forums as a back-end. I'd rather use a forum that is easier to maintain, edit, and modify then use a blog system that has limitations, integration annoyances, and other layers of security issues. Having things unified into 1 system helps me keep things under control and better maintained. So I will be using this main section of my new forum for my blog posts.
- Forums
- The forums will be a home to all my personal projects. Support and releases will be handled here. It is easier to maintain everything in a single location rather then creating a handful of separate forums or websites for each project. However, most of what I do is open source so their support / issues / bug reports are all maintained and handled on GitLab instead.
Since this is a personal site, plan on things changing constantly. I will be working on various parts of this site constantly in my free time to tweak it to my preferences as well as to get things into a state where it is easy to maintain, easy to use, and user friendly. The forums will probably see the most changes since it is a base install of phpBB currently. I plan on eventually finding a new theme/template to use since the default ones are a bit "default".
