Once Again, Late for the Bandwagon

Welcome to my digital lounge and cigar bar. Pull up a stool, smoke if you've got 'em, and place your drink order.
I've resisted the blogging craze for quite some time now, but since I found myself with that rarest of commodities, spare time, today I thought that I'd jump on the backend of the bandwagon and see what the fuss is all about.
My plan for this blog is to use it to post interesting material in the following areas:

Public Key Infrastructure
Windows Rights Management Services
Identity Management
Virtual Server and Virtual PC

Those are my current areas of expertise and hopefully I'll be able to post fairly regularly on those topics.

I hope that you find something interesting here. If not, then I've just managed to contribute my small bit to the clutter that the world-wide web has become.
