Preface

This is my first post. I mean my first post ever.

Hi!

My name is Ilan Cohen. I'm 32, software developer and I have been living in Israel for the last 15 years.

Why I want to write?

Writing is not something that comes to me naturally. I remember myself struggling with essay assignments in school and college and basically never wrote anything again since. The task of transforming a piece of white paper into anything else than a paper airplane would require huge amounts of mental power.

I want to write because I feel like it. I want to write because I feel it will be liberating. I want to write because I have something to share.

What am I going to write about?

Most posts will be technical. I'm a developer and I'd like to give back to the awesome community I've been leaning on my whole career. My first blog post after this one will probably be about how I created this blog and how you can create one too. Some posts will be personal. I'm going to have brain surgery in less than a week and I want to share my experience.

Bye!

I would love to hear from you! Comment, tweet or mail me with any thoughts. My contact details are in the footer.
