I am the administrator and editor of two WordPress-powered websites. I post long-form articles on The New Leaf Journal, the online writing magazine where the leaves are perennially virid, and short-form posts on The Emu Café Social. I write about things I am interested in, which includes, but is not limited to: Anime, Brooklyn, Current Events, History, Linux, Open Source Software, Reading, Sports, Video Games, Visual Novels, Walking, Writing, and many other topics. I mainly use GitHub to follow projects and repositories that interest me.

I created a "social" profile on The Emu Café Social. It has a micropost activity stream which is separate from the main part of the site. You can see it here. It has an ATOM feed if you want to add it to your reader.
