Colophon

Dougist is run on a self hosted install of WordPress. Here is the Site Map and the Change Log.

Most of the content is (now) written in Markdown, and MultiMarkdown.

Design began with the Durable v0.2 theme by Andy Peatling which has been heavily modified over the years. Mobile page design and plug in is provided by Crowed Favorites.

The site is hosted by WebHostingPad. Feeds are transmitted to tumblrtwitter, and facebook.

Site engineering is done by the indispensable GirlSonic (with whom I could not live without).

Desktop Software

  • Lit/Citation Manager – Zotero (might change with the Kindles & iPad and such)
  • I occasionally use Google Docs, if everything else falls apart, or if I’m in Windows, which is kind of the same thing.

Other Tools

  • My day to day money manager PocketMoney for the iPhone and desktop

Commerce and Capitalism

  • I run a single AdSense ad on my home page and on article pages, graphics only because the text one are too gross. I live for the day that I can run ads from The Deck, or Fusion any other non-google agency.
  • I do not run adds on Dougist notes (tumblr) and I’m not really sure why.
  • I link to a lot of sites. None of them are pay-for click, or sponsored links.
  • All of this vaguely defers the cost of keeping the site up, but the funny thing is I’d do it for free anyway.

Douglas Barone

A postmodern Existentialist with Objectivist leanings, fighting to catch up with his art, after serving time as a capitalist oppressor of the people.

Doug Barone retired from corporate life after 20 years in the finance industry and is fooling everyone into thinking he is a writer. Having been a corporate strategist, finance executive, and IT executive he has found almost nothing of use to him from those years except the zany people and crazy stories that no one in their right mind could ever dream up. He uses these real life experiences in his work and this separates him from other writers who never really worked a day in their lives either. He writes about the primacy of the individual, the oppression of institutions, and the ability of real heroes to exist. As such he fully expects to be pilloried by the academic left and the religious right, and looks forward to every lashing.
