I just finished moderating my comments. 704 spam. One inquiry as to when my next post would be up, and a shabbat greeting from a month and a half ago. From someone I don’t know.

I guess it rarely occurs to me that I might have actual readers. I’m so rarely ever pleased with the quality of my writing.

Well, here’s what’s going on at the moment:

The domain beyondthenear.net has been renewed for another year.

I have moved out of my apartment.

At the end of June I will leave for Israel, where I will be living for a year, studying at The Conservative Yeshiva in Jerusalem.
I have just completed a book on XHTML and CSS, and am now beginning to study Ruby all as part of a bizarre self-improvement regimen that I am putting myself through with the help of Jason (and by help I mean, of course, frequent lashings and water torture).

I will make a sincere attempt (again) to keep this space in use. I’m hoping that being in Israel will help with this. Meanwhile, you can go bug Jason to update DSA.
