One of my new years resolutions is to start writing. And by “start writing”, I mean that I’d like to learn how to write proper, coherrent posts/articles/essays/whatever-you-want-to-call-them. This particular post won’t be a good example of me starting to write properly because it’s just a test post to see if I’ve got my blogging environment up and running properly.

I’ve decided to use Octopress, as it appeals to my inner-geek and I’d like my writing environment to be as distraction-free as possible. So I’ll be using vim to write the posts, Octopress to generate the blog, and then rsyncing to a micro EC2 server running nginx.

If you’re reading this, it works.

P.S. I’ll be learning Markdown along the way too.
