yeah yeah, i know.

i’m sure there are a hundred thousand nerds who’ve used that very title to start their own blogs. for those of you who don’t know, it’s a convention among programmers. it’s a tradition that a new application (in a new programming language, usually) should introduce itself by saying ‘hello world’, and nothing else.

in this case, it’s a blog, but you get my drift. my blog is saying hello to the world. it’s saluting the planet. in fact i’m saluting the planet by proxy.

thank you blog! without you, i wouldn’t be able to say hello to the planet!

ok, that’s enough horseshit. :)

let’s see where this thing goes.
