- | I also run a private wiki which is my personal knowledge base of links and snippets I discover and just general notes on ideas and projects that aren't ready to publish. I've had something like this in one for or another for almost 20 years. Originally starting with [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WikiWikiWeb|WikiWikiWeb]], dabbling with my own creation, switching to [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki]], my own custom experiments again, and currently on [[Dokuwiki]]. I'm very happy with Dokuwiki, but I'm often exploring more user friendly alternatives as I try to introduce more wiki use among work colleages and in public projects. | + | I also run a private wiki which is my personal knowledge base of links and snippets I discover and just general notes on ideas and projects that aren't ready to publish.

- | I wrote a custom double entry book keeping system a long time ago, that I use to record every transaction I make. It gives me a great handle on my finances and has historical spending data starting around 2005. There are quite a few changes I'd like to make to it however - I'm considering re-investigating what's available in the open source arena again (I used Gnucash back but needed a web interface that wasn't available, so I built my own). | + | I wrote a custom double entry book keeping system a long time ago, that I use to record every transaction I make.

I'll always have a special place in my heart for IRC. This server isn't used much, it's mostly been replaced with Matrix, but I still have some monitoring software that checks in there as well as some bots for work. It's open to the public and also has two web interfaces ([[https://thelounge.chat/|The Lounge]]), one of which allows guest users. | I'll always have a special place in my heart for IRC.

+ | I'm interested in bringing new tech like [[https://activitypub.rocks/|ActivityPub]] and [[wp>Fediverse|federation]] into the mainstream, as well as ensuring old tech ([[wp>RSS]]) is used to it's fullest. This project is a public [[https://join.lemmy.ml|Lemmy]] server, which is populated (at least, I hope, initially) by RSS feeds from blogs and projects from around Glasgow. I also plan to mirror posts to a newsgroup server, but I'm still working on that. You can check it out at https://lemmy.glasgow.social |
