Good afternoon, good evening and good night, but more importantly welcome to my new mini blog!

I’m BrianLinuxing across social media and here as well, yet in truth I am just an old IT manager, who’s forgotten more than I want to ever think about.

I used to work in the City of London (the financial sector), doing complex computing things, building datacentres from scratch or migrating Mainframes, long before Google existed or there was a handy YouTube channel to explain everything!

I’ve done a lot over the years and started coding when Richard Nixon was in power, imagine that.

I have worked across many sectors, academia, Banking, commercial and also charities.

Non-profit-wise, I founded and ran the largest Linux community group in Britain.

I co-founded the largest Raspberry Pi community in London.

I give talks on tech, Linux, operating systems and how best to do technology the smart way. I run classes on Linux, how to get started, best practices and why to use it.

My computing talks and classes span the history of computing from the Abacus, to my new one: a quick guide to the AWS Amazon Linux 2 CLI.

Still, enough of me, that will be all explained in my new blog elsewhere when I finally managed to bolt it together, from all of the many disparate parts.

The function of this Tumblr blog is to collate my mini-reviews of #IoT devices, single board computers, strange pieces of tech and also to explain the odd gotchas that occur in Linux sometimes.

I am increasingly doing more and more #AWS

I exist on Instagram too! Even Twitter, yes as BrianLinuxing.

And now on Bluesky!
