Revamp
I’ve decided to start working on a custom-built platform for this website, if only for education (and, let’s face it, some degree of entertainment). WordPress works just fine but it feels vaguely alien to me, as I am a .NET developer at heart. I’ve started compiling a list of technologies that I’d like to include / use for this process and I thought this would be a good place to list them, if only as a declaration of intent:
- ASP.NET MVC
- NoSQL (RavenDB?)
- HTML5
- Knockout.js
- GitHub (will be open-source)
Last night, I went ahead and ordered a new license of Windows 7 for my Macbook Pro (I had transferred the only license I had to my home server some time ago), set up Visual Studio 2010 w/ Resharper, and am looking at a 4 hour-long bus ride up to Boston this afternoon. I plan on getting a few things started.. hopefully, I’ll keep this blog updated as I go.
