I’ve been blogging in one form or another for years. From saifai.co.uk (now well and truly defunct), where I wrote about Buffy and Ally McBeal, to LiveJournal where I did the random moaning about life thing, to workingwith.me.uk, to The Code Train, flickr and various places in between. The common denominator over the last eight years is that I’ve always been trying to produce something of worth.

Last year, I started taking a photo of my toy ED-209 every day. I lasted for about 70 days before I gave up on the every day thing, but what I found during this time was that everything else suffered. By taking the time to take photos of Ed I ended up not writing about code, t-shirts, food or any of the other things that I find interesting. So, this year I decided that instead of doing the Photo 365 thing, I would instead endeavour to produce a piece of content on the internet every single day of the year and link to it from this blog.

The idea is that by keeping this open I’ll not let any one aspect of my productivity suffer, and everything will get some content this year. I’m going to try and keep the meta-ness low on here though, and not have too many explanatory posts like this. Almost certainly there’ll be a load of photo posts though.

4% through the year already, here’s to the next 96!
