Back in 2003 I started my first microblog. This is a continuation of this blog and it runs aside my new full blog. This tumblelog will be dedicated to short posts, notes, quotes, and link dumps.
I wrote the code that generates this static site in Perl and it will be soon available via my GitHub page.
The current layout is heavily based on the well-known tumblelog Anarchaia. Colors where picked from the Emacs Soothe theme by Jason Milkins.
Years ago I bought the domain plurrr.com. Yesterday I started coding
tumblelog.pl, the program that generates the static pages for this
site, planning to use this domain. And today I noticed that I had let
go this domain some time ago. So I just added one additional r. And
hurray, plurrrr.com was available.
Used a simple makefile tutorial to create a small Makefile that generates the pages
for this site via tumblelog.pl and uploads the local version of this
site using rsync.
Used advice in this guide to hosting static websites to configure the NGINX webserver that hosts this tumblelog.
This write up on manipulating CSS colors has a great intro on the two different color models CSS uses: RGB and HSL.

I downloaded the hands-on guide Building Virtual Machine Labs by Tony Robinson, which can be downloaded for free as PDF. I plan to start working through this guide starting next week.
