This was not a question of perfect timing, just of being lucky :)

Slack Linux Fans is an interesting site to follow the latest happenings of our favorite Linux distribution. You can also follow Slack Linux Fans on Twitter.

Something went wrong when I canceled the “CNAME” entry in the DNS server that pointed “blog.nielshorn.net” to the old blogspot site. When I created the new “blog.nielshorn.net” subdomain I couldn’t get it to point at my own server. :-/

But with a little help from my hosting provider everything is OK now.

Feel free to look around and to comment on any errors or broken links!

  1. I do not have the time to write regular posts
  2. I really do not have too many interesting facts to share with the world


But it seems that nowadays everyone is blogging all over the world. My wife – who really isn’t into computers that much – has a blog and even my son started one.
But hey, I’m self-assured enough to not feel left out yet ;-)
There are other things in life than computers…

I do like to write in forums and newsgroups. I go there to ask questions and to share ideas, solutions, help other people, etc.
Once in a while I write an article about something I found out, a problem I solved or just to receive constructive criticism.

Then some people suggested again I should put these articles in a blog, so that other can find them more easily.

Well, OK, I’ll give it a try.

I have lots of stuff here that I wrote down in text files that I might transform into posts in this blog.

Maybe I’ll even start enjoying it ;-)
