4 Greetings, my name is Clinton and you have stumbled upon my personal
5 website. This is a continually evolving project as most things on the
6 web are.

19 * Journal
20
21 I keep a [[http://journal.unknownlamer.org/][journal]] which is where I tend to send ideas out into the
22 Ether before reformulating them into coherent essays for the site
23 sitting before you, occasionally interspersed with commentary on my
24 mundane daily existence.
25
26 [[http://unknownlamer.org/index.1999_2006.html][The Old Site]] is still available. Links to pages there will remain
27 stable indefinitely so as to not break the Holy Command of Our Sovran
28 Hypertextia.

51 ** Résumé
52
53 I am a programmer by trade, and as such have a (potentially) fancy
54 [[files/resume.pdf][Résumé]]. I am quite familiar with [[http://common-lisp.net/project/ucw/][UnCommon Web]] and Common Lisp in
55 general. This, naturally, makes me unemployable.

61 ** Site Software
62
63 I use [[http://www.mwolson.org/projects/MuseMode.html][muse-mode]] to author the site because [[http://emacswiki.org][Emacs]] is all powerful, and
64 the closest approximation to a good user interface available on any
65 modern computer system. Muse allows me to simply write with very low
66 overhead (I spend most of my time in Emacs, and having hyperlinks and
67 a reasonable preview in the file buffer is quite useful). The file
68 format is quite hairy, but luckily the code is Free Software and, if
69 needed, I could easily write a publishing backend that transcoded my
70 site to an easier to parse format. There are advantages to being a
71 programmer.
72
73 I use darcs to push updates to the site and manage my muse files. As
74 such there is a handy [[http://unknownlamer.org/darcsweb/browse?r=unknownlamer.org;a=rss][updates feed]] courtesy of darcsweb.
