==What motivates me to host this and other web sites?==
Well for one thing I love sharing knowledge and the things I learn. Second I perform web hosting and support web and information servers for a living so it comes natural to me.

I can tell you what does not motivate me and that is revenue. I already make a good living I don't need to generate revenue from my web sites. In fact I am pretty disgusted with the layers of Javascript and pop-up advertising that litters web sites these days. You will not see such tactics here. I generally try to eschew using client-side Javascript but it does have its place. I do use Google Analytics to see what articles are getting the most attention. But you can easily block that and the sites will continue to display just fine.

What motivates me to host this and other web sites?

Well for one thing I love sharing knowledge and the things I learn. Second I perform web hosting and support web and information servers for a living so it comes natural to me. Third I am a journal-er and writing things down electronically makes it easier for me to find them later rather than go through boxes of journal books. Fourth its a cheaper and more effective way to publish world-wide than to write and publish books.

I can tell you what does not motivate me and that is revenue. I already make a good living I don't need to generate revenue from my web sites. In fact I am pretty disgusted with the layers of Javascript and pop-up advertising that litters web sites these days. You will not see such tactics here. I generally try to eschew using client-side Javascript but it does have its place. I do use Google Analytics to see what articles are getting the most attention. But you can easily block that and the sites will continue to display just fine.
