After much trail and error, I finally managed to get
SubText 2.1.1 working on
GoDaddy (actually the instructions in
this blog post are accurate and easy to follow - my problems were of my own making).
I have been meaning to start a blog for a while. I agree with
Joel Spolsky and
Jeff Atwood that its important to exert some control over your online presence - from the show notes for
StackOverflow podcast 52,
Joel notes that if you’re shy about putting things online, you are letting other people control your online identity — and that will hurt you much more in the long run than any potentially questionable things you might possibly put online.
My dream is that my blog eventually scales the giddy heights of distinctly average and if just one person reads it and finds it useful my life will be complete.
I am a software engineer living in Loughborough in the UK. I have been developing software, in one form or another, for the last 25 years. My current day to day work consists of product development in .net technologies, specifically C#, ASP.NET, WPF, and Silverlight.
