System0 blog launched

Hello and welcome to my first post for System0.net. System0 has been the landing page for all of my internet websites since 2002 however that is all it has been ie. the site had very little info and was not updated often.

Some months ago I considered launching my own personal blog. I am lucky enough to have the domain for my name (KevinMuldoon.com) and my initial thoughts were to host a blog there. I finally got serious about launching this blog a few weeks ago but my main concern was what would it be about. Whilst I would like to have a place to post some random views from time to time, for the most part posts would be related to web development. Last week I came to the conclusion that I should not use my name for my blog.

So what name would I use? Well, after a few days I quickly realised that a good internet domain is even harder to come by. I also realised how fussy I am about choosing a design for a site! After uploading and modifying over a dozen wordpress themes I decided to use the Bogart theme from Jim Mitchell. The design should hopefully be temporary but I’m pretty happy with the simplicity of it. It is also well commented so will be very easy to modify.

So what will the System0.net blog be about?

The site remains a place to list some of my web projects however the main area will be the blog (for now). I will be disussing what I do online, things that worked, things that didn’t. I don’t really want posts to be seen as a guide or whatever but I’m sure people can learn from what I go through (including my mistakes!!).

I also hope that the blog will raise my profile a little and make it easier to make contacts with other like minded web developers. Bear in mind though that I don’t expect to update this blog on a regular basis and I’ll maybe post some personal related posts every now and then too

Anyways, if you have any questions please let me know and I’ll do my best to answer them

Thanks,
Kevin Muldoon
