Today was my first day at work and it went well. It's a small publisher which is about half moved to the web from print. They have a single Unix sysadmin who is now desperately in need of a hot-swappable spare, that being me in due course. There's a bloody lot to get done and lots of useful things for me to be getting on with right away. I'm looking forward to tomorrow.

I must admit my new work laptop was an exciting prospect. It's one of these. Apparently they're rather more fragile (particularly the screens) than something that shiny should be, but that's why employers buy such things and IT departments maintain them. It also weighs just a kilo. And has 3GB memory, being upgraded to 5GB shortly. And also runs Ubuntu 9.10 flawlessly. All I need now is Lotus Notes 7.04 for Linux.

Yay for gainful employment!

When will you start buying people pints?

Congratulations!

Is the current sysadmin installed on Wet Riffs, and do you have to be hot-swappable there too? ;-)
