Soon, Really...

February 13th of this year I wrote a list of four things I intended to blog about soon. They were:

My third (and this time successful) attempt with Ruby on Rails

Purchasing and Colocating a server for work

Using javascript to create stylable select boxes

Version control likes and dislikes

I (sort of) got into the first one here and here. Or at least I touched on Rails in posts. Close enough.

Two through four, not so much. I'd say I suck at blogging, but this year I've done 300+ posts over at blogdowntown, so I can't blame that.

I'll still have to get to two through four. And I'm getting back into one for a different project, so I'll be sure to say more on that as well.

Eric Richardson lives in Atlanta, Georgia, where he works on payments infrastructure for Cash App.

Past lives involved streaming audio for Southern California Public Radio, running a hyperlocal news site for Downtown Los Angeles, working on custom mapping code, and writing Perl at the Jet Propulsion Labratory.

It would make sense that the day before I have to take my COMM final, the USC email server would be borked up and I wouldn't be able to download the...
