READIN started out as a place for me to keep track of what I am reading, and to learn (slowly, slowly) how to design a web site.

There has been some mission drift here and there, but in general that's still what it is. Some of the main things I write about here are reading books, listening to (and playing) music, and watching the movies. Also I write about the work I do with my hands and with my head; and of course about bringing up Sylvia.

The site is a bit of a work in progress. New features will come on-line now and then; and you will occasionally get error messages in place of the blog, for the forseeable future. Cut me some slack, I'm just doing it for fun! And if you see an error message you think I should know about, please drop me a line. READIN source code is PHP and CSS, and available on request, in case you want to see how it works.

See my reading list for what I'm interested in this year.

🦋 Woo-hoo!

Well now I've got Apache 2 and PHP 5 installed on the new server, and working nicely together. Tonight or tomorrow should see MySql working, and then I'll be ready to write a test version of this blog. Also: I built my own vim, because the one that came in the distribution did not have a lot of features I use like syntax highlighting and mouse support.

Update: ...And, MySql is working! A bit of a hassle while I recompiled the latest version of php with MySql support, broke it, and eventually fixed it. (Still not quite sure what was broken or how I fixed it; but am finding the FAQ's at php.net pretty useful.)

Update: Here is an update done with the new system.
