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.
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 Linux.conf.au, Drupal, or SPIP posts.
The most recent posts are:

So LCA2010 is underway. It's been busy and it's only day two (day one really), so I'll give a brief recap so that I can remember it later.
The rest, you can find in the archives.
