My first entry...

This is the very first entry I make into my blog... can you recall these intentions that everyone formulates into statements at the end of a year? To my opinion they are distinguished from other intentions because of three key reasons. First of all they are all about improvement in some way, second, the person who states them is always certain about his ability to achieve his goal, and third (but not least), most of these intentions are vaporized during the following year and are slowly forgotten.

My intention to start a blog was not something like that. My intention is not to blog on a daily basis and be driven by some kind of a moral obligation because someday in the past I committed to doing something, my intention is to rather try to write down my thoughts into an article whenever something touches me. This could be on a variety of topics… my family touches me, my professional life touches me, even when I develop applications and come up with the long sought solution for a problem I sit back and enjoy the moment.

I would like to take a moment to thank the guys over at BlogEngine.NET. They have done a wonderful job creating an open source blogging application, and I must say that they have indeed succeeded to their goal of creating an application that is easy to install, easy to maintain and most important, easy to use.

What will I blog about? As stated above I will be writing down my thoughts on a variety of subjects. Coding solutions, projects I am working on, difficulties I encounter, basketball, vacations, Greece, my family… these are all topics I will definitely blog about!

A, and English, for what it is worth, is not my mother language.
