Hello World §
Welcome to spiralofhope's personal web space.
This place is run by my hand-crafted compiled website engine. It's a proof-of-concept for a philosophy (see compiled website reasoning) as well as a working host for my reviews and writings.
Herein, I write on any topic I'm interested in. Most of what I've written on is about computers.. primarily software. I've done a lot of software reviewing and have written about usability and documentation.
See also spiralofhope.wordpress.com, the blog I was occasionally writing on while grinding my teeth over preparing this new place.
At this time, several thousand documents are trapped offline and are queued for hand-importing. Yes I'm working on some automation for that.
I also have an uncounted number of projects, archives and notes which are on my "when I get around to it" list.

Hosting software and even pictures is an issue of bandwidth, and I have no intention of going down that route without seriously hardening it. I may use file sharing resources on the net, or I may present an overview on this site and then approach other resources to have them host my stuff. There are specialty sites out there that would drool over some of the stuff I've collected.
