keep it simple

I don't know when the blogger.com is off the blacklist. When I realized the blogger.com can be accessed here, it was last week. So I typed in this very very old url: zelin.blogspot.com. BOOM! Thank myself, I gave a straightforward name so that I can still remember it after four years. The latest post on this blog was published on Oct 19. 2005. October is the end as well as the beginning.

The main reason I moved to blogger.com is the simplicity and clean design. I was going to write all IT related stuff here. Nothing changes. It's still my purpose today. An IT related blog.

But things do change. From the old posts here, I was focusing on three areas: ASP.NET, Linux(Debian, Ubuntu) and some java. Today, I'm focusing on Linux(Ubuntu, Debian), Ruby On Rails and other open source related.

Ubuntu is a rising star. from 5.04 Hoary to 8.04 Hardy, it's been 3 years. Inspired by one of my colleagues, I uninstalled Ubuntu and switch to Xubuntu. It's good for me and also for my laptop.

I'll post my installation step by step later.
