Hello World!

“Welcome to WordPress.com. This is your first post. Edit or delete it and start blogging!” – WordPress

If you are looking for my first post, you’ve found it. To begin with, my name, for all intensive purposes, is Scott. This blog is something I’ve been thinking about for a while, but I didn’t know if anyone would read it or care about it. Perhaps I’m committing a blogger taboo by revealing that, but that’s fine.

Main focus of this blog:

  • Information freedom (Various notes and links to cool sources for music, movies, etc.) All perfectly legal.

Subjects this blog may cover randomly:

  • Literature (As I am English Major, but I will mostly be writing about very odd books and not necessarily mainstream ones.) I hope you find them interesting.
  • History (My other major. I will not be giving lectures. Random tidbits and perhaps links to more info.)
  • Computers (Open source alternatives, New OSes, Online games, etc…)
  • Linguistics, Neuroscience, Sociology, Metallurgy, and random bits.

Hello World,

This phrase has originated with the computer programming world. Python, Perl, C, and other programming languages which have their difficulty evaluated by the time it takes to create a script that will spit out, ” Hello World!”. Like many of the memes (slogans, sayings, and whatnot) of the internet age they originate somewhat randomly. I’ll inform you of specific ones as they come to my attention, however I’ll leave you with one wikipedia link for a bit of further reading about one of my favorite internet memes: Godwins’s Law.

Until I post again.
