As a marketer, I needed a quick and easy way to tweak landing pages messages targeted at buyer personas, without having to go through Engineering for small changes. Google Tag Manager let me do just that.

Now that I’m a techno crab, what should I do? I have a lot of tools at my disposal that allow me to hack these shapes, which are all flat, sitting on a flat canvas. So what if I unflatten them by adding depth?

I first learned about git at a startup I worked for, but I never really learned it. So it made sense that, since I wanted to start this blog and it involved Github, I should learn more about it.

Let's talk about one of humanity's favorite subjects: taxes. Recently, I received the following note from my accountant: 'Eric, sometimes my job is not kind. Unfortunately the deduction wasn't enough.'

I didn't land straight on Jekyll. My needs were not fancy: I didn't want to give up my geeky side and go with a simple, WYSIWYG type of tool. I wanted a configuration which I could set up by myself and that would allow some level of tweak-iness.

Just a plain to do list, so I can write ideas down.

Why am I starting this blog?
