Author Biography

Adam Knight is one of the founders of Mac Geekery and is a geek at heart. Programmer by day, hacker by night, his daily life revolves around the Macintosh platform, which he has been a user and programmer for since the early days of System 7 when his LCII replaced his Apple //c.

In-between tech jobs, he’s managed to learn the basics of any web hacker: PHP, MySQL, Perl, Apache, Linux, *BSD, and the intricacies of ./configure —prefix=~/bombshelter/. Today, codepoet is concentrating on blogging again, writing some software for the Mac by himself (including Notae) and for his company (such as Photonic) and has a few other toys coming out soon.

Bug him over AIM or email [link fixed].

I'm a sucker for minimalist web sites, and therefore new white space intensive Mac Geekery layout is very pleasing to me. Furthermore I am finding the content to be of great value to me as well. The tab-completion article for bash was most useful. Keep up the good work! -- "I love my Mac. I feel about it what no man should feel about a computer." - Jeffery Zeldman

h3. New Design

As you can see, Mac Geekery sports what I hope will be the final design for the site. Perhaps a few tweaks here and there, but this is it. Poll's on the right, discussion of the redesign is in the "forum topic":http://www.macge

Once upon a time I thought there was a section on the site that aggregated news and postings from other Mac related sites. Even if that section can't come back out and play, would it be possible to get the list of sites? -- "I love my Mac. I feel about it what no man should feel about a computer." - Jeffery Zeldman
