An Explanation
Hi welcome to my website, I use this site as a place to stash things that I think are interesting and to have a good rant about stuff every now and again. Its in its infancy at the moment but I'll keep adding to it over time, the design will most probably stay fairly minimal as I can't design worth a damn.
So why butterflyeffect? When I was made redundant from my first job out of Uni, a hardware startup called Power X I needed an email account. A layer of indirection was a good thing so a domain was needed. Being out of work I had a lot of time on my hands I'd been catching up on my reading and was learning a bit about chaos theory.
The butterfly effect is talking about the sensitivity of complex systems to initial conditions, specifically that you don't need to have a big input to have a dramatic effect, sometimes its just about timing. As at the time I was feeling fairly insignificant it seemed appropriate. Just afterwards someone decided to make a picture with the same title.
The picture is just there because I like blue butterfly's, and too much text is boring.
