3. BeanCounter
4. Collection of Programs
5. GreatCharts
6. Grism

I’m curious about my blog readers.

1. How often do you read an article here? Daily? Weekly? Monthly?
2. Do you use an RSS reader to read this blog? I do, BTW.
3. I’m planning a migration to a new blog system. Any feature or content requests? More virtualbox or more cooking?

Please either leave a comment or drop me an email.

I love curry dishes. It wasn’t always the case, but then I found a restaurant that did an excellent red curry chicken and got hooked. I’ve had curry perhaps 3 times that last 2 years – not nearly enough to get my fix as it were.

Perl is a “C” like scripting language for those of you who didn’t immediately know or thought I misspelled pearl.
