Introductions

Whether you're a stranger or an old friend who stumbled inside, hello and welcome! 

My name is Björn Paulsen. I'm a several things: a software developer by trade, a nerd by nature, a Swede by birth, and a father by the skin of my teeth. And while I don't pretend to have reached mastery in any of these noble pursuits, I hope I'll have enough to say about some of them to provide some entertainment.

It's not my first blog. I once kept a Livejournal account, which was succeeded by my own Wordpress page hosted from a server in my closet. The first was awkward to administrate, the second impossible to migrate. For a time, as opportunity died, so did my interest.

Public participation in sites like Facebook or Quora, however, can only hold one's interest for so long. One day, I realized I'd missed having a blog. So I started to look around. At first blush, Blogger seemed a reasonable platform. I signed up.

The next few posts will probably be me trying to get the hang of this format. I'm not going to emulate my previous blogs in terms of style, even though I may occasionally post older stuff that I'm particularly happy with. This is a fresh start, and deserving of a fresh tack.

Thanks for reading this far. There'll be more soon, proper content. Stick around.
