2 years ago, a lonely young blogger who shall remain anonymous tried blogging. He tried a personal blog first, but got too wrapped up in the goings-on in Iraq to post anything meaningful. Then, he tried a more wide-ranging blog but he simply couldn’t figure out what to write and so it went for months without entries. After these 2 fail attempts he basically gave up all hope and went back to his cold, dark cave to write articles for various sites and magazines.

But then, just a few short months ago, a glimmer of light came to the cave our young blogger was hiding away in. In all honesty he can’t remember if the idea was his or that Linux God Aaron’s, but at any rate one of them thought of the idea to do a group blog. A low-pressure place where if there were enough posters it wouldn’t really matter if everyone only posted once a month.

And so Ensight was born.

It has been a few months since that has happened and in that time, our young hero has truly caught the blogging bug, E-Blogga as it were. It has gotten deep into his system and now whenever he has a genius idea he yearns to blog about it. Sadly, most of his genius ideas are on the can and by the time he has :ahem: cleaned himself with that “satiny softness” he has forgotten his genius idea entirely. So, the readers here are left with the table scraps of genius, but ah well, at least our hero’s :ahem: isn’t agitated.

And here we are to present day, where our young hero is staring fear in the face and attempting to blog on his own once more. He still keeps his cave for those dark and rainy days, but this time he has brought some “satiny softness” to keep him company.

He hopes you enjoy the reading as much as you enjoy the writing, and he sends a truly fond “thank you for everything” to all of the writers who have made Ensight what it is, and who have made our young hero what he is. Thanks guys, you are all amazing. I mean :ahem: he says “thanks guys, you are all amazing” to the old Ensight crew!
