Zen Computing

The Man:

Well, I have written the interface for The Machine's daily postings. Unfortunately no one tells you that to achive "Zen" ness for computing, there's a whole lot of work involved in the back end. One day, however, I do hope to have that IKEA-looking computing environment up soon. The problem is that Windows is so un-zen, and Linux is just a pain!

Anyway, The Machine will start its postings on the Market come Monday. This should be just in time for the 20th anniversary of Black Monday, which will be on Oct 22nd.

Genesis

The Man:

Hi all. This blog is meant to detail the day to day exploits of The Man, The Machine, and The Algorithm that resulted from this collaboration of flesh and 'net. Given that this is my very first blog, please be kind to me and my machine. :)

I'm currently working on learning the Google Data API python interface in order to get The Machine's blog entries uploaded automatically. The Machine will eventually post daily updates on the latest news feeds affecting the international stock market, as well as the latest posts regarding The Algorithm's trading recomendations. For more information about The Man, The Machine, or The Algorithm, please visit my website at: http://www.wcoretech.com/

This blog is modeled after the book: "The Blue Nowhere," by Jeffery
Deaver, an excellent book detailing computer hacking and the emergence of the computer world. Definitely much better than Dan Brown's "Digital Fortress."
