Web Challenge #0

Warning: the gap between this idea and the writing of this post is really really short, so sit back and wait for chaos.
Months ago I participated of what I called ‘my openbox challenge’, where I wrote six posts about my experience with the openbox window manager. On that times, I wanted to use a simple window manager, not a full-featured, bloated desktop environment, so I toke this opportunity to share some knowledge I would learn through the way and, ya know, get used to it. Today I am happily to announce I am satisfied with the i3 window manager. It is currently the default for my Arch Linux Desktop, and I don’t care about the others. Sadly I didn’t do a challenge about i3, because I was busy while I was trying it. Also, in this epoch I began to write here some posts in English. I said this would be a way to practice my own English – and yeah, it really is. It’s harder (= takes more time) for me if I’m not writing on my native language. But okay, probably it is a good idea to let my gramatical errors lay down here…
Anyway, back on topic, from now on I will be a web-oriented person. Let me clarify: last years I spent much of my free time learning about Linux and, more recently, Emacs. Both of these topic subjects were a good choice (for me), and I don’t regret spending my time on these activities. But, for now, I will pay most of my attention (on free time, dammit) to web activities. This means I’ll start learning from servers, databases (administration and modeling) and backend, until javascript and frontend. Oh, this path is long, really really long, but I’ll put my faith on it, because I believe the web will be the future (it already is).
It wouldn’t make sense to start a challenge like this NOW. It does takes time. So I’m just announcing I’ll be doing something new about Web on the next couple of months. Actually, I began today, but I’ll pause for a while because college tests are coming.
