The Purpose of the Blog

There are a lot of useful dev blogs out there; I've learned a lot from them, as well as from comments and discussion on sites like TwentySided, AltDevBlogADay, and many others (I intend to make a post listing as many useful ones as I can find and remember).

In any case, I want to use this blog to document what I've found and done, perhaps some of my efforts will be of use to others.
