First Experiences

Well, this feels kinda weird to do. Never really had a blog before for anything other than class. I guess that hasn't changed, but I feel like I might end up using this one far more than anything I did on tumblr. Might have to do with all the stuff I had to do just to do this post.

IRC is a little odd to me. I understand what it is and why it is still an important resource. I guess I just don't get why it is still be used as opposed to something a little more...current? That is just me though. Either way, I had to set up IRC on my laptop and set up an account. My name on IRC is the same as it is on here (got lucky both times!).

Technically starting this blog was the second step, but I couldn't add anything to it until I was finished with everything else. So that leaves the Github exercises. First I had to get an account on Github (again with Pharas!) and then fork the repository for my class so I could add my own personal yaml file to it. I had never heard of a yaml file before this, but Notepad++ had a language setting for it, so I'm happy.

Overall, I think this will be the start of something pretty fun. Thanks for reading and have a wonderful day
