Duly noted

[shared via Google Reader from stevenf.com]

Speaking of notes, there has always been a subset of my notes that I’ve wanted to share with the public — those little techie one-liners that take hours to figure out or find on the web. The ones where I’ve had to look up the same thing over and over so many times, I finally said to myself, “I should really write this down somewhere.”

I couldn’t find a tool that I liked that would let me store all my notes in one place, but also indicate, hey, some of these are public, and please turn them into searchable web pages that look like the rest of my site and put them here at this URL.

So I abandoned that idea and forked my notes into public and private sections. Then I hacked together a script to display the public ones here on the site.

It’s not perfect, but it’s better than nothing until a more elegant solution arrives.

More to come, as always.
