I started with Basic, switched to Pascal, learned C and (a bit of) Fortran, programmed in Assembly language for small embedded systems and made several attempts to learn C++ before starting professional career in software development. Since my first serious software job I have mostly used C, C#/.Net and C++ on Windows and Linux platforms, learned Perl and Ruby, PHP and finally felt in love with Python.
As for hobbies I love to do all kinds of *nix system administration tasks like setting up Web servers, but I also enjoy writing Web-based applications, setting up databases and doing all kind of daily life scripting which I love to share with others.
By the way, I happen to have other hobbies as well, but they fall totally out of technical scope of this blog :).
I hope you find information in this blog useful.
Enjoy!
