thoughts to blog

The wait is finally over… No longer will you all suffer the void in your life that my witty, sarcastic, humorous, and perpetually perverse comments used to fill.



“No problem can withstand the assault of sustained thinking.” -Voltaire



I used to think that people actually wanted to know: ”Who IS Jake?” Boy was I suprised. The experiment ran for a year, wandering through various aspects of my life including software development, images of the female form, and my favoritism towards the Green Bay Packers. This time around, I hope to spend more time posting on my thoughts rather than reposting links, images, and stories from other people. Thus the name and URL of the blog being Thoughts to Blog



So you’re probably asking… what are the REAL changes to this site?




  • Obviously the look and feel is different (and will be different, watch the gradual change from the default theme)

  • The site is AJAX-i-fied. Check out the comments and live search. Welcome to the Web 2.0. heh

  • There will be tags to posts now. They will still be categorized… more meta data to play with! yay

  • You can use Markdown (with SmartyPants) for comments!

  • Eventually the old content will make it’s way back to the page…

  • RSS feed will now be RSS 2.0

  • The site should be XHTML 1.0 and CSS compliant

  • All of this thanks to Typo

  • and the BEST PART is that it’s driven by Ruby on Rails - quite simply an amazing web framework



That’s about it… Welcome to my blog faithful readers.
