5 website. This is a continually evolving project as most things on the
6 web are.

21 * Journal
22
23 I keep a [[http://journal.unknownlamer.org/][journal]] where I used to send ideas out into the Ether before
24 reformulating them into coherent essays for the site sitting before
25 you, occasionally interspersed with commentary on my mundane daily
26 existence. As livejournal has sold out almost all of their former
27 ideals I no longer use this, but will eventually set up a weblogging
28 system locally.
29
30 [[http://unknownlamer.org/index.1999_2006.html][The Old Site]] is still available. Links to pages there will remain
31 stable indefinitely so as to not break the Holy Command of Our Sovran
32 Hypertextia.

34 * About Me / Contact

36 I am a mild mannered hacker and metalhead.

50 ** Jabber
51
52 =clinton at hcoop dot net= (this also works as an email address and must
53 be protected as a result)
54
55 ** IRC
56
57 I hang out on Freenode and oftc as =unknown_lamer= in various
58 channels. =/whois= will guide you to me.

60 ** Résumé
61
62 I am a programmer by trade, and as such have a (potentially) fancy
63 [[files/resume.pdf][Résumé]]. I am quite familiar with [[http://common-lisp.net/project/ucw/][UnCommon Web]] and Common Lisp in
64 general. This, naturally, makes me unemployable.

70 ** Site Software
71
72 I use [[http://www.mwolson.org/projects/MuseMode.html][muse-mode]] to author the site because [[http://emacswiki.org][Emacs]] is all powerful, and
73 the closest approximation to a good user interface available on any
74 modern computer system. Muse allows me to simply write with very low
75 overhead (I spend most of my time in Emacs, and having hyperlinks and
76 a reasonable preview in the file buffer is quite useful). The file
77 format is quite hairy, but luckily the code is Free Software and, if
78 needed, I could easily write a publishing backend that transcoded my
79 site to an easier to parse format. There are advantages to being a
80 programmer.
81
82 I use darcs to push updates to the site and manage my muse files. As
83 such there is a handy [[http://feeds.unknownlamer.org/rss/site-updates][updates feed]] courtesy of a small Lisp program I
84 wrote and darcs.

86 A [[Site Software][more detailed description]] of my setup is available.
