Ground Control to Major Tom

Testing, Testing. 1, 2, 3.

So, I'm trying this whole online diary thing out for two reasons. First, since I'm going away, this is a good way to make sure everyone knows what kind of trouble I'm getting in while I'm off on the West Coast

Also, I figure I should try to teach myself XML since I'm supposed to be a Technical Writer. And if I succeed in my quest to conquer XML I will not only be the best Techical Writer that ever lived, but also a fantastic self-motivator/teacher/insert something good here.

And, really, what else could anyone ask for?

Unfortunately, my current knowledge of XML is limited to the 5 minutes of XML tutoring that I remember from last year's crash course in fourth year Business Writing. Oh, well, isn't it expected that you forget most of what you've learned in school once you get out? Hopefully, as time goes by, you'll be able to see my fantabulous XML-related progess.

Anyway, on behalf of everyone here at Green Mango, I thank you for your patronnage and promise that my next entry will not have anything to do with mark-up languages of any ilk.
