what is this place all about

it's all about me me me.

metal & gin

metal & gin is my personal blog, the name comes from a status update i made whilst on the train one evening, i was commuting home and was listening to nine inch nails whilst drinking a gin & tonic. metal & gin.

i use the place to write about things i care about, i focus mainly on the web development industry, with a strong focus on ruby / rails, emerging web technologies and rich internet applications. i also sometimes talk about work, my personal life and anything else that pops into my head.

this is also a place where i try to collate some of the meta-data i generate whilst online, you can see my "life-feed" to the right which is a combined feed of facebook updates, twitter updates, del.icio.us posts, digg articles, flickr uploads, last.fm recent tracks and blog posts from here.
