So because I’m new to this whole blogging at Packet Pushers thing (and blogging in general), I’ve been trying to decide on my place in the grand scheme of things. There are a lot of folks here that do a great job of deep-dives, vendor happenings, and general overviews.

One of the things I insist on is learning the theory or concepts behind the technologies, rather than just learning how to configure the technology.
