Nerdy Things

Nerdy hobbies have been at my core since I first touched a computer, from copying hundreds of lines of code to online gaming staring with TradeWars on old dialup bulletin board systems (BBS).

We all have hobbies that help us kill spare time – or cause us to waste time we don’t have! But so what? Hobbies are fun and relaxing, and you can learn interesting things and meet cool people. This blog alone was one of those nerdy hobbies – how does a blog work, what is WordPress, how can I instal a self-hosted WordPress Site?

This section of our site continues to explore the nerdy side of me, from software reviews, software technical support, hints, and tips, to WordPress hosting ideas, and software downloads.
