+#### Alive again
+
+So, back to blogging. I've tried to run a blog since the dawn of time, more or
+less, and it's always been a bit of a failure, partly for lack of anything
+interesting to write about, and partly because blogging software is uniformly
+awful. Typo, Wordpress, Zotonic, various home-grown bits and pieces... always a
+hassle to install, maintain and publish to.
+
+The latest attempt is also slightly home-grown, but based on the go.tools/blog
+codebase (via hints [here](https://blog.toshnix.com/goblog)), which is reasonably
+pleasant. TODO: styling. Really TODO.
+
+#### The future
+
+No point having a blog if I'm not going to put anything on it (again), of
+course. My old articles will be imported soon (they remind me how to do DNSSEC,
+so I really do need them), but I'm hoping to embark on a project that's been
+sat around in my head for a little while now.  Working title: *The Capitalist
+Pig-Dog Blog*. There's also a general election coming up, which is making me
+want to write things, as ever. The state of housing is also still in my head.
+Prices make me angry, co-operative housing models make me feel better.
+
+Watch this space. Possibly forever, but hopefully not.
