Today is a very exciting day for me considering my blog has finally been completed!
After months of grueling brainstorming, designing and shenanigans, igeektrooper.com has finally launched! A lot of work has gone into the site, so I hope you all enjoy it!

Most of my ‘blogging’ in the past has been done on Twitter, but things are going to change.
I am not bound by the shackles of the 140 letter format. Screw that! I’m free to gibber-jabber without anything holding me back!
