DAN'S TECHNICAL, PROFESSIONAL AND SOMETIMES PERSONAL BLOG

Welcome to Dan Gilleland's Knowledge Base. Here, I keep bloggings, articles and reminders I've posted. I also have a blog at Spaces.Live.com and a couple of others at my workplace at NAIT, but those are (mostly) cross-posted here are well.

So - look around, read a bit, and I hope you find something useful.

This site was created April 3, 2009. Postings from earlier sites have been amalgamated into this single site.

Footnotes

Here are some brief footnotes about this site.

  1. The by-line for my site ("DAN'S TECHNICAL, PROFESSIONAL AND SOMETIMES PERSONAL BLOG") is a direct adaptation/pull from the tag line on Greg Duncan's blog. It's great, and I just had to use it, and I feel less guilty about stealing borrowing it if I do this attribution. (Hope you don't mind, Greg.)
  2. These articles, unless otherwise attributed, are written by me (Dan Gilleland) and reflect my own synthesis and adaptations of what I'm learning.
