TL;DR – This is a blog and software platform for the various projects of Alex Holehouse

In the year 2012 everyone has an on-line presence. Whether we like it or not, we all have some kind of immortalized, digital footprint, creating an electronic shadow, reflecting whatever parts of our personality we’ve chosen or accidentally allowed to cross through our keyboards onto the tubes. Here, they clatter around in a generally chaotic manner, so I thought that by providing one, centralized location for my various activities, I might be able to regain some control over that footprint. Maybe that’s wishful thinking.

In a more concrete sense, this site is an opportunity for me to talk about things I find interesting and (hopefully) showcase bits and bobs of the various projects I’m working on. I have pretty broad interests, fairly evenly split between science, technology and biochemistry (with a significant amount of overlap). I’m hoping that by having a decent blog, which I have complete technical control over, I’ll be able to motivate myself to write some well thought out and researched stuff on various developments in all of the aforementioned fields. That, or write wildly sensationalist pieces displaying my dissatisfaction with things. One or the other, certainly.

If this interests you, great. If not, sorry about that. If it angers you let me know, and similarly, if you agree or disagree with anything feel free to leave a comment.
