Ten months after becoming self-employed, I'm finally listening to my back.

I have replaced the standard chair I have been sitting on with a brand new Kinnarps 8244 ergonomic office chair. It is not a cheap chair but when you spend more than 12 hours per day sitting on the same chair you better get a decent one.

When I became self-employed, a little over two months ago, I decided to donate money to the open source projects that help me during my day-to-day activities. Just like Eclipse, Drupal has helped me a lot during the past few months.

Welcome to the brand new blog of Norio.

In the future, you can expect IT-related posts (in English) about a variety of topics: open source, open standards, software development, web design, content management, emerging technologies and so on.

The actual topics and the frequency of the postings will probably vary greatly.
