Passing Curiosity

Welcome

I registered the domain Passing Curiosity with the intention that it become a productive outlet for my rather short attention span. Rather than waste man-years clicking "Open Link in New Tab" on Wikipedia, I would make that time productive by summarising what I read. Dead time, no more!

Alas, I got distracted. Nearly three years have passed and Passing Curiosity is still just a neglected blog.

Blog

This site currently plays host to my blog. Over the years I've maintained a few and almost everything I posted to any of them can be found here.

You might like to view my Drupal, Barcamp or SPIP posts. You can also view posts related to various Conferences including linux.conf.au 2011 and DrupalDownunder 2011.
