Need to figure out the best use of namespace and if there is a way to utilize a namespace feed to promote entries by date in descending order to emulate a blog in that regard.  Other than that, this Wiki will be a wiki by use.
 
Apologies for the META refresh push.  Apparently I'm falling off Google while I'm rebuilding, so I put that in there.

This site is mainly a collection of my own meanderings and interests (of course it would be, it's my site). If you're lost, I suggest checking out either the Categories or My Contributions page to see if there really is anything of interest for you at all here.

If you were looking for MikeBeane.com, you've found that as well. I can't be bothered to update two sites, so both domains point to the same place on the web. It's just another spot....
