I am the author and owner of Ramen Freak. I work in Windows and Linux mobile computing for a boring, colorless, publicly listed corporation in East Coast USA. I live with Janet (my wife since 1985) and two whimsical cats the size of battle tanks in the lush concrete suburbs of Anytown, Anystate. My wife isn’t ‘big’ on noodles though. Oh well…

THE 1ST PLACEHOLDER POST: ‘Hello, world!’
The first placeholder post is typically headlined “Hello, world!” with no content. Leave it alone. This is your blog’s birth certificate. It helps the search engines to ‘notice’ the launch of your blog.
Oh, well done, bruv. You’ve made the second biggest blogging mistake.
Your writing doesn’t have to be perfect for a blog. It only needs to be reasonably readable — and reasonably formatted (which you still have to do anyway even for a piece written by someone else).
This is because you’re meant to fill them with pre-prepared copy (text and pictures).

On the balance of all practical probabilities, it’s easier (and cheaper) to write your own stuff.

You need to understand why you yourself should be doing the writing for your own blog — certainly for the first two years.
THE 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST
English is the blog’s language, but other languages may appear occasionally (hopefully with an English translation).
Comments close on all posts after 28 days. Comments should be in English as far as possible, although all languages are welcomed. Comments once posted cannot be retracted or removed, so please comment at your own risk.
